[Bug libgcj/21785] New: [regression] ClassNotFound during deserialization

["bonniot at users dot sf dot net" <gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org>]

This very simple serialization/deserialization test fails. This is a regression.

      throw new Error(e);

Note: this bug looks similar to a bug I reported against jamvm:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=543058&aid=1155738&group_id=75148

I paste here the evaluation Robert sent me privately after he fixed it, as it
MIGHT be relevant to gcj too (being a change in classpath).
"
P.S.  It was the recent changes made to Classpath. 
VMSecurityManager.currentClassLoader() now returns "null" if
checkPermissions(AllPermissions) passes.  ObjectInputStream uses this
to resolve a class, and ends up trying to resolve it using the
bootstrap class loader (which fails).  By luck SableVM works, because
it doesn't have a complete implementation of VMAccessController, so
checkPermissions(AllPermissions) fails, and currentClassLoader returns
the same as before.  I'll report a Classpath/SableVM bug.
