Joel,

Thank you for the review.

Actually, that is a very good question.
We will be adding the test case for this one to our vm side 
defmeth.PrivateMethodsTest, because
you have to create a classfile since private methods in interfaces are not 
supported by javac, they
are for internal use for Lambda support. So it was decided to not try to add 
them to the
java reflection tests.

Good question - I brought this up once with Tristan and Amy who were writing 
reflection tests for lambda.
I will ask again about reflection coverage for invoking a method more than 15 
times.

thanks,
Karen
