Summary:  java.lang.reflect.Method.toString() and array parameters, etc

Original Submission:  The toString() method in the reference implementation of
the Method class gives the wrong answer when called on a
method with a parameter or a result type that is an array
type.  You get "void foo([I)" instead of "void foo(int[])"
for example.

The bug is due to the use of 'getName()' on the respective
Class objects to get the type strings.  Unfortunately, 
getName() is specified to return a "[..." string for
an array type.
