May be a Raspberry Pi could be used as a build machine for Stretch, armhf, as Raspbian based on Debian Stretch is just released. I've successfully built LinuxCNC on an RPi 3B running on Raspbian Stretch and run it on a BBB running on Debian Stretch. Interestingly, RPi has 64bit ARM CPU while Raspbian is armhf architecture.
