      Description

        Whilst working on other bug fixes, I've noticed a discrepancy in the codebase between JDK families that doesn't make sense. Parts of the 6424631 fix are missing from JDK 7 & later even though the bug is marked fix integrated for JDK 7.

        further investigation from Dev. team shows that :

        ====
        The changes in the deploy workspace, in AppletViewer.java, seem to have been ported from 6u1 to 1.7.0 b04. However, the changes in j2se workspace, in src/share/classes/sun/security/jca/Providers.java, src/share/classes/sun/security/providers/PolicyFile.java, and src/share/classes/java/security/Policy.java do not appear in 1.7.0 b04 or any time later.

        ====

        We meed to ensure this gets ported to avoid any potential regressions with people migrating from JDK 6 -> 7
