Re: can't build R3.13 extension

[Geoff Savage <savage@fnal.gov>]

If you change any files in base/configure you need to rebuild  
everything.

> cd base
> gmake clean uninstall
> gmake

From the 3.14.9 readme:
"Build EPICS base

After configuring the build you should be able to build EPICS base by  
issuing the following commands in the distribution's root directory  
(base)
gnumake clean uninstall
gnumake
The command "gnumake clean uninstall" will remove all files and  
directories generated by a previous build. The command "gnumake" will  
build and install everything for the configured host and targets.
It is recommended that you do a "gnumake clean uninstall" at the root  
directory of an EPICS directory structure before each complete  
rebuild to ensure that all components will be rebuilt."
