Re: EPICS Base R3.14.10-pre1 available for testing

[Kazuro FURUKAWA <kazuro.furukawa@kek.jp>]

Hello Andrew, hello Jeff, 

I've tried base_cvs dated oct.4.  On darwin-pcc and darwin-x86, it 
goes well.  Followings are the notes for Tru64unix (osf-alpha); 

(1) configure/os/CONFIG.Common.osf-alpha
You wrote "# Unknown reason why this doesn't work in POSIX_LDFLAGS:".
I think that the reason why POSIX_LDFLAGS doesn't work is that the 
symbol is not referred in configure/os/CONFIG.Common.UnixCommon but
POSIX_LDLIBS is, although I don't follow all the makefile include's. 

(2) src/ca/comBuf.h
The provided version now works cleanly without a patch any more.  
Thanks. 

(3) src/libCom/osi/epicsThread.cpp
The new version does not compile with these messages.

I replaced it with -RC1 version for now. 

(4) src/cap5/Makefile
Your modification solved the issue around xsubpp.  Thanks.  
A certain paranoiac compiler does not allow a space after "-I".

If it is necessary, please use my previous patch for epicsStdioTest.
