epicsTime has non-portable c++ static initialization

[Jeff Hill]

When testing R3.14.11 with vxWorks 6 we see that epicsTime has a non-portable static initialization. There is a static variable "lti" of type epicsTimeLoadTimeInit which can be used by static variable ctors in other source files befoore its ctor has run.

Note that there was a change to the munch.pl script in R3.14.12 which fixed some build issues on vxWorks 6.6 and later, although at first glance it doesn't look like the changes could affect this particular issue.

I created a fix and ran the test with the following output.
