I would have liked to eliminate that library, but I think it's too late
now. The EPICS_BASE_PVA_CORE_LIBS variable should probably exclude the
pvAccessIOC library, and pva2pva could export EPICS_BASE_PVA_IOC_LIBS
say, which should include both pvAccessIOC and qsrv. That change I would
still accept. There might need to be an adjustment to the pvDatabase
module which is now using that variable and was previously linking
against pvAccessIOC, but I don't know if it actually needs it or not.

I have less than 12 working hours left until our telecon on Tuesday
morning when we'll start the final release, and I promised our IT group
I would continue working on moving the APS EPICS website to a new
web-server, so I'm running out of time myself.

We do have MS Visual Studio 14.0 already installed on our Windows build
agent so I just adjusted the APS Jenkins epics-master-windows job to use
that instead of 2010 and triggered a rebuild, which seems to be running.
This job does update the submodules to the git tip, but it will only
check hourly and trigger automatically when the core/master branch is
updated so it will be faster to email me to run another build (use my
gmail if you're still working on it over the weekend).

It's probably worth testing those too if you can spare the time, maybe
after Michael has fixed the build with 14.0 (if it fails!).

Thanks guys,
