#186 Failure on starting KF with installed security manager in readonly mode

[Dimitry Polivaev]

If I run knopflerfisch

• with installed security manager
• with option org.knopflerfish.framework.readonly=true
• without creating empty directories fwdir/perms and fwdir/condperm
  knopflerfisch fails with exception

because it wants to get (empty) list of files from directories which are not created.
There is a workaround to create the directories before the application run.
I think if were nice if Knopflerfisch could accept the case of missing directories.

Verified problem, will be fixed in next release.
