This is a feature I had to correct in the Force Sparc 5 (frc5ce) IOC
code port of R3.12 as well - along with forcing several CA buffers to
be quad-word aligned.

Cause:
        In rsrv/rsrv_init.c the DELETE_TASK macro is called with the result
        of the taskNameToID() vxWorks function call. If the task name is not
        found, this returns a -1 (0xffffffff), which causes the error when
        passed to errnoOfTaskGet().
Fix:
        DELETE_TASK now checks for it's argument (TID) being ERROR (-1).

        #define DELETE_TASK(TID)\
        if(TID!=ERROR && errnoOfTaskGet(TID)!=ERROR)taskDelete(TID);
