Yes, this is what we have.  Current busybox-static in wheezy+ does not
work.

What's interesting - I compiled busybox-static on curent wheezy host,
the resulting binary works fine.  But the same busybox compiled on
jessie does not work.  Also, it is specific to amd64 arch, it does not
happen on i386 (from 2 variants of x86 arches).

Thanks,
