  LPS-30766	PACL, issue with SecurityManager
  LPS-31972	6.2.x PACL - cannot deploy PACL test portlet
  LPS-33121	6.2.x: Unable to deploy PACL
  LPS-29221	test-pacl-portlet - securityexceptions when deploying the test-pacl-portlet
  LPS-30861	PACL: Can not be enabled

Whenever, in a plugin with PACL enabled, a call is made to:

System.getenv()

a permission is check is made using RuntimePermission("getenv.*")

This results in an exception something like:

PASSED Manual Testing using the following steps:

1. Enable PACL.
2. Create a plugin war file eg. weather-portlet.
3. Add anywhere in the java code:

System.getenv();

4. Deploy it to portal.
