I'm having some difficulty with this, first of all finding a good candidate JDK 
class which would be accessible from the test which has multiple levels of 
serializable hierarchy. Secondly AFAICT this change doesn't relate in any way 
to sub/superclass calling sequencing (that would be the caller's 
responsibility). The API deals strictly with a single level of a class 
hierarchy at a time. So, I'm not quite clear on what else to check; the tests I 
have presently will verify that the method meets its contract, but if there's 
some subtlety I missed (very possible) then I'd like to add tests for those 
case(s).
