Q1: Which version?
Q2: Did you compare both installations' configuration? E.g. Template classes can (and should) be denied access to most of the underlying runtime environment, and I'd rather consider this a feature than a problem

General Statement: A freemarker template should not contain any code like this at all. It's meant to create the UI, not store arbitrary stuff in sessions (in fact, nothing should be stored there ever - it hinders load-balancer-fail-overs, eats up your memory, and makes your code unmaintainable)
