Description

On a debug win64 test job, the

JIT\Regression\Dev11\dev10_865840\dev10_865840\dev10_865840.cmd

test failed with this message:

Unhandled Exception: System.MethodAccessException: 
Attempt by method 'DifRepro.Program.Test()' to access method
 'System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission..ctor(
   System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermissionFlag)'

I'm excluding this test until the root cause is known and resolved.
