Cannot create project on Mac OS X after upgrade of JDK
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=167240

Impact assessment
Users on Apple Mac OSX cannot effectivelly use NetBeans IDE on JDK 1.5 
after recent JDK security update. Projects cannot be created, new files 
from template cannot be created.

Risk assessment
Risk is low since the fix is in "third party" library (javax.script.*) 
that is provided with IDE for running on JDK 1.5. The fix is catching 
NoClassDefFoundError and ignoring it while iterating over available 
scripting engine implementations.

Peer code review will be provided in IZ as well as QE review.

Diff of the change in in IZ.
