I don't believe it was documented, or even existed at the time I moved my 
stuff. This machine, and 3 others here, running linuxcnc, are still 
wheezy. One experimental install on a pi is running jessie. And I've not 
had that problem with jessie. So its possible we could both be right. 
One stretch install on an arm64, not doing anything of note except 
building rt kernels is also working well.
