I can't say for sure whether that problem is fixed in 9.x yet or not,
but I'm working towards that.  I suspect that some of the changes that
might fix that problem haven't been merged back to 9-stable yet.  My
DreamPlug, which is pretty similar to a DockStar, is running well on
-current these days.

At work our ARM products are currently using 8.2, but we need to move
forward to 9.1 very soon, so I'll be working to strengthen arm v4/v5
stability in 9-stable.
