Hi,

I was just trying to run the eclipse oomph installer on a jdk9 jvm and it kept
crashing with lengthy stack traces (which I want to spare) having to do with
the security manager not finding directories and/or policy files.

I guess the best way to find out is to download the eclipse installer from
https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/oomph/epp/oxygen/R/eclipse-inst-linux64.tar.gz
and try yourself.

To me it looks as if the runtime is now searching for a folder
conf/security/policy/unlimited which is not present. When I linked the current
place for java security to that folder the runtime started to complain about
missing policy files, which is when I stopped investigating.

I found these 2 commits that I think could relate to the problem (but I'm not
sure):
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/rev/51843ad502b5
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/rev/259d5781a907

thx Michi
