My reading of the method's spec is that if the value of the refKind parameter is: MethodHandleInfo.REF_invokeInterface, then DirectMethodHandleDesc.Kind.valueOf(int, boolean) should be called with a value of true for its second argument, currently it is invoked with false regardless of the value of the refKind parameter
