Title:
  caget of an empty waveform record returns 2.50321e-308 in 1st element

Status in EPICS Base:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  record(waveform, "test:wf") {
      field(FTVL, "DOUBLE")
      field(NELM, "8")
  }

  $ caget test:wf
  test:wf 8 2.50321e-308 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  $ caget -c test:wf
  test:wf                        0

  Not sure if this is a caget bug, or somewhere inside dbAccess. We
  don't normally allow zero-length arrays, but the initial value for
  waveform.NORD is zero.
