The WaitForBarrierGCTask is used for two purposes. In GCTaskManager::execute_and_wait() it is used add a task to the end of the queue of tasks and then wait for that task to complete. This is a way to block until all tasks in the queue have been handled.
In IdleGCTask::do_it() the WaitForBarrierGCTask is not used as a GCTask at all. It is merely used as a wrapper for a monitor. All IdleTasks should share the same monitor to be able to be notified when it is time to wake up.
This second use case inside IdleGCTask is better handled by a class that is not a subclass of GCTask.
