[Bug classpath/23921] New: gnu.classpath access restrictions are not enforced by default

[robilad at kaffe dot org]

Where they really should be. The VM internal classes should be protected by
setting package.access=gnu.classpath in the classpath.security file, rather than
having to implement it all in the VM.

This brings me to the second part of the bug report: setting package access is
hierarchical. Restricting gnu.classpath also restricts gnu.classpath.tools. So
I'd propose moving the classes whose secure access is precious into the
gnu.classpath.internal package, and restricting access to that package, rather
than the more generic gnu.classpath hierarchy.
