That is very interesting, and tells me that the problem is probably not in 
that example client program.

Tell me about the IOC that this PV resides on, and the record type and device 
support of the record itself.  Does the problem also occur with other fields 
or other record types?  Is it limited to this particular IOC, or this 
architecture of IOC?

I'm trying to find out what might be different about your installation and 
IOC, because I am unable to replicate this behavior on a linux-x86 IOC here 
using R3.14.9.
