java.security.AllPermission fails for Grails 1.3.2 app on JBoss 5.1 Community Edition

From what I understand, a SecurityManager policy file with only

grant {
  permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

should grant all permissions globally. However, running a Grails 1.3.2 app on JBoss 5.1 Community Edition and JRE 6u24 gives the following stack trace when accessing a page after a successful start (while without the security manager turned on it runs fine), could this be a bug somewhere, or does anyone have any other insight?:

*I had to cut out about a 150,000 characters from the middle of the stacktrace, looks like some kind of infinite loop may have led to the ultimate PerGen exception:
