Hi David!

I also want to run nightly Mauve tests with OpenJDK and I'm having some
problems with the security checks, like:

$ java Harness -vm java -showpasses -debug gnu/testlet/java/lang/Runtime/security.class 
WARNING: running tests on 'java'.  To set the test VM, use --with-vm when
configuring or specify -vm when running the Harness.

checkPermission((java.io.FilePermission /bin/true execute))
checkPermission((java.lang.RuntimePermission writeFileDescriptor))
unexpected check: (java.lang.RuntimePermission writeFileDescriptor)
expected: mustCheck: (java.io.FilePermission /bin/true execute)
expected: mayCheck: (java.lang.RuntimePermission modifyThread) (java.lang.RuntimePermission modifyThreadGroup)

Do you have an idea how we could fix them?  Of course I could disable
them, but...
