tomcat/src/org/apache/tomcat/context/PolicyInterceptor.java

Imports from java.security  CodeSource, Permissions,
and ProtectionDomain.

org/apache/tomcat/request/Jdk12Interceptor.java

needs AccessController

org/apache/tomcat/loader/AdaptiveClassLoader12.java

references both ProtectionDomain and AccessController

and

org/apache/jasper/servlet/JasperLoader12.java

references AccessController.

But now that I understand better how Tomcat is configured
and how it works I see that these classes are not needed
for my purposes. After removing them from the build
I can now compile Tomcat (and run) without supplementing 
libgcj.

Thanks for the tip!
