Ok, that's a relief. If you have an environment variable EPICS_BASE
pointing to D:\EPICS (and not to D:\EPICS\base) I think that might
explain the behaviour of our build system.

I don't think so:

The current version on the 3.15 branch can also be viewed online at
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~epics-core/epics-base/3.15/view/head:/src/std/softIoc/base.dbd

That looks OK, bar what appear to be typo's pcDataCPP and pcAccessCPP
which might affect your ability to use some V4 modules. The G:\ drive is
Janet's default Windows setup.
