Great idea. Only comment is that this can go further (I only checked 
g1CollectorPolicy):

g1CollectorPolicy.cpp:
- Line 186, can change tests of MaxGCPauseMillis to guarantee(), because:
           range(1, max_uintx)
- Line 192, can change tests of GCPauseIntervalMillis to guarantee(), 
because:
           OK, this doesn't have a range defined, but it should: 
range(1, max_uintx)

The checks from lines 220-228 are probably covered by the constraint 
functions (MaxGCPauseMillisConstraintFunc(), etc), but this RFE is about 
ranges :-)

  - Line 293, can change tests of SurvivorRatio to guarantee(), because:
             range(1, max_uintx-2)
