Thanks for answers. SecurityUtils was removd from CLASSLIB.

PolicyUtils was removed from DRLVM. Again, there is a drawback - Kernel
Classes refer to particular Classlib implementation. Still because of there
are a lot of calls in CLASSLIB to PolicyUtils.matchSubset & there is no
another CLASSLIB implementation on top of DRLVM I did not copy "matchSubset"
to AccessControlContext - this allows avoiding duplicating 'matchSubset'...

Thanks

Besides, I have tried to remove the SecurityUtils class, and it is OK with
IBM VME.
