> Inside Configuration.substituteVars(), there is a call to 
> System.getProperty(var); this contains the implicit assumption that the JVM 
> will never block access to a system property, because if that is the case 
> -such as when the Configuration is running under a restrictive security 
> manager, a SecurityException gets thrown. This will get thrown all the way up 
> the tree. 
> Better to have some plan to handle it in situ, such as a [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
> level then leave the property unexpanded.
