### Allow hex and octal strings in dbPut and dbGet It is now possible to convert hex and octal strings to integer fields with `dbPut()`, `dbGet()` and related functions like the iocsh command `dbpf` or through database links. Possible incompatibility: Up to now, leading `0`s have been ignored, now they switch to octal mode. For backward compatibility, this behavior can be switched off, returning to the old decimal only conversions, by setting the environment variable `EPICS_DB_CONVERT_DECIMAL_ONLY` to anything except the empty string or strings starting with `n`, `N`, `f`, `F` or `0` before `iocInit`.
