well, gl4java asks if it can use a privilegedAction, 
loading a special implementation (class).

if gl4java is installed in the regular location,
the jre/lib/ext (see the FAQ for details),
the default policy file gives us all needed rights:
	- loading a native library
	- loading a java class 

looks like, you are using it on a different location ?
therefore, of course, you need to grant proviliges by hand.
