This fix filters out static interface methods from superinterfaces when adding methods. I have also added a note to the javadoc for both getMembers and getDeclaredMembers pointing this out (though it is implied from JLS). 

Correcting myself, I added a note to getMethods() and getMethod(String name …)

getDeclaredMethod{s} shouldn't need a note.
