In dbCaLinkTest, the tests that fail are those where we check the resulting array data after a successful dbGetLink, except in one place in testArrayLink where we test after doing a putLink first. These are: the first two calls to checkArray in testArrayLink (but not the third) and the two calls to checkArrayDouble in testreTargetTypeChange. The former function gets called 4 times, so we get 10 failures overall. The failures happen for all combinations of parameters (number of elements in source and target).

I spent yesterday staring at code differences (my changes and what changed in the 7.0 branch in the meantime). So far I couldn't find anything to explain why these tests succeed in my original version but fail now. This isn't easy to debug because of the CA layer in between with event queues and whatnot. So It is hard to guess the exact code path this takes (so I could insert printfs at these points).
