      DisableStartThread is defined for Java threads

        develop(bool, DisableStartThread, false, \
                "Disable starting of additional Java threads " \
                "(for debugging only)")

      but is being applied to GC worker threads. For example
      share/vm/gc/shared/workgroup.cpp

       64 if (!DisableStartThread) {
       65 os::start_thread(new_worker);
       66 }
