If the name of the timezone has more than a few characters a crash can occur on pentium vxWorks iocs. See ansiTime in the vxWorks reference manual for details about TIMEZONE.
In the Application Developer's Guide the example for the RTEMS TFTP filesystem chdir command isn't quite right. The note says that all pathnames passed to chdir must end in a / character, but the example doesn't show this. The example should be changed as shown below.
The RTEMS TFTP remote filesystem driver now supports a limited form of the chdir() system call. One restriction is that all pathnames passed to chdir() must end in a / character, so IOC shell commands to change directories must be given as
cd ../db/
src/libCom/osi/os/default/epicsReadline.c used a char variable to hold the return value from getc(), and compared this against EOF. getc() returns int not char because ANSI C allows char to be unsigned if the architecture finds that easier, thus EOF can never be stored in a char on a PowerPC CPU. char should be changed to int or signed char.
