Andrew McIntyre commented on DERBY-1152:
----------------------------------------

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, I believe adding these permissions to the 
test policy is ok. There are only two places in the code we try to get the 
classpath, sysinfo and the client trace code, both handle security exceptions, 
and I think it's unlikely that we'll need to get the contents of the classpath 
elsewhere, but you never know. Maybe we should mark this bug number in the 
policy file for future reference in case anyone wonders why these permissions 
were added. I can take care of that as I follow up on DERBY-622.

> If you wire your classpath together out of the compiled classtree and the
