After comparing SecurityUtil.java in 5.0.19 to 5.0.28 it can be seen that in
5.0.19 the principal was not being associated with the subject. It seems likely
then that the reason that the ClassCircularityError did not appear under 5.0.19
was simply because the security check failed because the subject had no
principals and it was looking at a grant that had principals specified. In turn
this avoided the security code needing to load the principal class and hence no
ClassCircularityError.
