I think I figured it out. With the attached test I could reproduce the problem on IKVM as well. The attach Classpath patch fixing things, although past 0.20 I think we should refactor the security properties like I did with the system properties (i.e. introduce a gnu.classpath.SecurityProperties class). As you can see in the test, there is still the incorrect "charsetProvider" permission being checked. I'm looking into that one as well. Regards, Jeroen
