The changes to MBB are okay (I probably should drop the braces to keep 
it consistent with the existing code but it doesn't matter).

I assume the test should pass if the direct buffer is not a sub-class of 
MBB - maybe you've put that check in there to force the test to be 
updated in the that the class hierarchy is fixed?

The @summary line should probably be clear that it tests the MBB methods 
when a direct buffer is cast to a MBB. Future maintainers will not know 
what "UOE" is about.
