I'm sure I've never written a database that relies on this behavior.

https://github.com/epics-modules/iocStats/issues/33#issuecomment-484995327), but I don't know if that is intended to support EPICS 7
I don't think this release will officially support EPICS 7, but I am definitely going to try to start getting all of our code compliant with newer versions. That's what ended up finding this issue as I was updating some of my own code for the changes to links. >I understand this seems like a rush, but a synApps release strikes me as a good reason to try and get this fix included. Since the whole of synApps isn't likely to use EPICSv7 at least for the next year or more, there's not really a rush. The only IOC's going in that use it will be for specific areaDetector cameras and they don't really use the record types affected. >What is the bug?
