That's my fault - I forgot to turn on PAE in the Wheezy RTAI kernel 
(despite its name implying it has PAE).

Changing it now would be problematic because linuxcnc built for the 
pre-pae kernel won't run on the pae kernel, and vice versa.  So i've 
opted to not fix it.  Hopefully your CNC application fits in 2.5 GB.

Yeah, that's all accurate.  The RTAI kernel I built for Jessie (based on 
Linux 3.6 and RTAI 5.0-test) worked fine in all my limited testing on 
real hardware, but crashed very frequently when running tests in the 
buildbot.

I reported the problems we were having on the RTAI mailing lists, but 
that's as far as I got in debugging things.  :-(
