Hi Jon,

Looking at the ver.03+delta_03_04, I have a question.
src/share/vm/gc/parallel/psScavenge.cpp.frames.html
line 398, previously we checked active_workers but you are suggesting to 
check total workers.
Is there any reason on this? Looking at the new comment, just adding the 
comment without code change seems correct.

Please update the copyright in TestGCOld.java before pushing this if you 
care.

Thanks,
Sangheon
