I noticed that I can use hex numbers in DOL with EPICS 7 but not with
3.16.1, 3.15.5 or earlier.
What about adding this option to 3.15/3.16?
Code to allow the use of hex numbers in CONSTANT links was committed to
the Base-3.15 branch in June:

Fix link initialization from hex constants
Fixes LP: #1699445
Includes regression tests (some of which will fail on 3.16)
This was fixing a regression, my restructuring of the constant link code
(which was a necessary part of the link support development) changed the
string to integer conversions from using a mixture of strtol(),
strtoul() and sscanf() with %i or %u formats. The regression first
appeared in 3.14.12.3 and 3.15.0.1, and the above commit will fix it for
the 3.15.6 and 3.16.2 releases which we'll probably put out early in 2018.
