Bug Description

Icedtea fails with this security exception

Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.lang.RuntimePermission" "charsetProvider")
 at java.base/java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:472)
 at java.base/java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:897)
 at java.base/java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:322)
 at net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.JNLPSecurityManager.checkPermission(JNLPSecurityManager.java:292)
 at java.base/java.nio.charset.spi.CharsetProvider.checkPermission(CharsetProvider.java:76)

even though the jnlp file requests "all permissions". IMO the only possible all is all,
so this must be a mistake. The same code, launched by an independent launcher, works
fine.

To see this behavior, see http://boardspace.net/java/boardspace7.jnlp
when the first (login) screen appears, select "play offline"
