Thanks for the clarification - I now remember that when the spec wants 
to talk about superclass/superinterfaces in a given declaration (not the 
transitive closure) it uses the term 'direct' supertype/interface. In 
this case 'direct' is not there, so I think it's legitimate to assume 
that the wording means "every class in the superclass hierarchy".
