Moving the internal classes to com.sun.java.accessibility.internal is right as com.sun.java.accessibility is a supported API. Sean is right that no need to specify /secure=java.lang.SecurityManager.

Just add the /java.security.policy option -- this will use jtreg's SecurityManager which is sufficient for testing this bug, and then you won't need the jtreg.security.policy file.
