I just tested the busybox-armv4l downloaded from busybox.net, and it fails on the PW3 as well (and works on the K1).

Apparently ARM processors are not upwards-compatible (or at least not across different manufacturers). Old apps just will not work (even when static compiled) when ported to new ARM-based hardware, and must be rebuilt.

Oh well, such is life. At least I am (still) ecstatic that I *CAN* build from source code for the K1. Remaining difficulties are just trivialities to hide from the end-user.
