This:

+     * <p> If this Class object represents an array type, then the 
returned array
+     * has a Method object for each of the public methods inherited by the
+     * array type from {@code Object}, except for clone().

should say

"array type from {@code Object}.  Although array types define a public 
{@code clone()} method, it is not included in the returned array."

Object#clone() is protected (not public), and clone() should use @code 
markup.
