I don't think the problem is that it cannot find base, at least not at compile time.  If that were the case I would expect to see many error messages about not being able to find epicsMutex.h, etc.

I concur with Eric, I think something was corrupted with your download or tar file extraction.

I normally build asyn from a CVS checkout, but just to be sure that there was nothing wrong with the tar.gz file on the asyn Web site, I just downloaded and built asyn from that file on Linux and vxWorks.  It built fine, there is nothing wrong with the asynRecord.dbd file.

It seems asyn cannot find dbCommon.dbd where all those fields are declared.
dbCommon is located in the epics base. So check where your
config/configure files are pointing to. (did you 'make' the base?)
