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.
If two targets using the same OS are built in parallel,
they can both try to install the same include/os/* file
at the same time, causing the installEpics.pl script to
die. We fix this by making all installations atomic:
First copy the file to the installation directory using
a unique name, then rename it to the target name. The
target name is in the same directory and filesystem as
the temporary name, so the rename should be atomic.
o fixed launchpad epics base bug 878387
o added regression test for bug 878372
o build the optional test and diagnostic codes for all (not just vxWorks) IOCs
o added acctstRegister optional IOC shell registration for regression tests
Two menus can get modified by users; these checks make sure they
haven't been damaged too much:
* menuConvert is checked to flag problems with IOCs converted from
3.13.x, where the SLOPE choice didn't exist.
* menuScan is checked to ensure the three initial choices are still
present and that there is at least one periodic scan rate.
Our joint conclusion was that wrapping system includes with
extern "C" used to be necessary on some OS builds when C++
was much less common, but is now wrong.
The old test for discriminating between statically and dynamically
linked applications (os/RTEMS/osdTime.cpp:staticTimeRegister()) is
wrong, it never detects a dynamically loaded app.

CA links in records were being removed without locking them first.
We also now set the link type to CONSTANT, which prevents some
assertion failures if the record gets processed again before the
IOC finally dies.
This symbol is required to be visible on non-PowerPC (68k) vxWorks
systems for devInterruptInUseVME() to recognize interrupt vectors
that the devDisconnectInterruptVME() routine has marked as not used.
A rare race during shutdown. The contenders are the log thread
coming out of its loop and calling errlogCleanup(), and the
exitHandler signaling waitForWork.
This solution is to move cleanup completely into exitHandler,
which already waits for the log thread to exit.
