Follow-up Comment #1:

(Sorry for not answering this sooner.)

This result:
  class [Ljava.lang.reflect.Method;
from
  (get-class (get-methods 'foo))
is indeed as expected.  The result (get-methods 'foo) is an array of
java.lang.reflect.Method instances, so get-class of the resuot is
java.lang.reflect.Method[] *in Java syntax*.  However, the toString method of
java.lang.Class uses java.lang.Class#getName for pretty bogus but historical
reasons.  Check the JavaDoc for java.lang.Class#getName.

"(get-methods (get-methods 'x)) 
returns 
=> [] 
invoking getDeclaredMethods should return list of <java.lang.reflect.Method>
objects."

No, it returns a (Java) array of java.lang.reflect.Method objects.  And in
this case its an empty array, since the argument array type has no methods
(except those inherited from Object).
