The created mr jar file is being tested in #139 with versionedStream(). Without the fix there will be a npe.

The update to versionedStream looks okay but the test seems to be checking JarFile::stream rather than versionedStream. For the bug we need the stream to end without NPE and we also need to check that there isn't an element for META-INF/Foo.class (because this is not in the base section).
