that's very nice, this patch moved us a bit closer to java 1.2 security. with
support for policies in, the next step would be actual reading of certificates
from JAR files (and cert'ing kaffe's libs).

by the way, wouldn't it be simpler to just use a List in AppClassLoader instead
of manually updating the Sources list?
