I notice the output format for date() for R3.14 is difference from
R3.13. In detail

tsStampToText() is replaced by epicsTimeToStrftime(). Is there any
functionality

somewhere to return the name of the month ("Mar" rather than "03").

At least some versions of strftime support these:

%A is replaced by national representation of the full
weekday name.
 %a is replaced by national representation of the abbreviated
weekday

name.
 %B is replaced by national representation of the full month
name.
 %b is replaced by national representation of the abbreviated
month

name.

.. and epicsTimeToStrftime just calls the underlying strftime

after removing the format character for the nanoseconds (if used).
Not sure if that's available on vxWorks, RTEMS, ....
