The fix looks okay.

Typo in the new test line 26: s/intermidiate/intermediate.   It would be 
good to make sure the directory doesn't exist before generating the 
proxy class and also check if the expected file is created after it's 
generated.   An alternative is to call Proxy.getProxyClass instead 
ProxyGenerator as your test is under java/lang/reflect/Proxy.  Maybe the 
testname be renamed to "SaveProxyClassFileTest.java"
