This test fails if the cwd is not writable, but on vxWorks the
fault appears at the fclose() not the fopen() line. The code
now detects this and tells the user what's probably wrong.
Windows stack sizes were the same as vxWorks - tiny.
The stack sizes are now multiples of sizeof(void*).
On 32-bit systems they give 256KB, 512KB and 1MB;
64-bit systems get twice those numbers.

Clients try to use long string support to fetch DBF_STRING
fields use DBF_CTRL_CHAR with a 1-element array, but the IOC
was rejecting that. This permits it, and also ensures that
the resulting strings are zero-terminated.

Merged J. Lewis Muir's fix for comments introduced by macro.
Added fixes to allow comments to be indented too, which used
to work if the '#' was followed by white-space or any argument
separator character.
The handling of comment lines is only performed before macro
expansion, thus lines with macros that expand to comment lines will
not be correctly handled as comment lines.
By chance this kind of worked sometimes because a "#" command that
does nothing is internally added to the command registry to make it
show up in the help output. Relying on this is broken. Furthermore,
if the line starts with '#' followed by a non-separator character
(e.g. "##", "#whatever", etc.) it will not work (i.e. it will produce
a command-not-found error).
This fix checks to see if the first character of the line after macro
expansion is '#'. If it is, it considers the line to be a comment.
This allows the same version of Base to be used from both RHEL5 and RHEL6
for example; they use different Perl versions which are not compatible at
the ABI level.
Most shells strip the single-quote chars from arguments, but on
win32-x86 this is not happening so we need to do it ourselves.
The single quotes are important to prevent un-escaping of things
that shouldn't be unescaped.
The finite() function is provided in glibc but not in uClibc.
C99 requires isfinite() to be a macro, so we can test for it
and define our own finite() macro in osi/os/posix/epicsMath.h
Replace the buggy local copies of the functions UnixPath(),
LocalPath(), readRelease() and expandRelease() with the
library versions from our EPICS::Path and EPICS::Release
perl modules.
When creating files in ../O.Common it is eesential to use atomic
file replacement rather than deleting the old file and creating
a new one in its place, because two or three architectures could
be being built in parallel which might interfere.
This commit also ensures that .dbd.d files are constructed
properly when using 'make -s'; $(ECHO) does nothing then.
