I'm puzzled that I don't see the path to EPICS Base here.  Specifically
you should see "-I$(EPICS_BASE) -I$(EPICS_BASE)/os/Linux" (expanded of
course).

However, the fast that make proceeds far enough to invoke the compiler
suggests that you have the correct path for EPICS_BASE.

"cvtFast.h" comes from EPICS Base.  Does it exist for you as
"/usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base/include/cvtFast.h"?  If not
then Base is probably not build correctly.

FYI, a set of instructions which I've checked
