[threeten-dev] default ZoneRulesProvider and the system property for it.

[Roger Riggs]

Hi Sherman,

Why the use of reflection to instantiate the provider?  Isn't 
class.newInstance() sufficient.

Also, is it standard practice to put these inside doPrivileged?  It 
would seem
to be a security risk.  I would want the constructor to have to do its 
own doPriv
to get elevated access to files, etc.

Thanks, Roger
