Greetings, I'm working on a distributed computing project and I'd like to
compile the 3.8.xx executable for use on Raspberry Pi 3 B/B+ using an ARM v8
AArch64 tool set. There are a number of experimental versions on Git so I'd like
to know which one would be considered the "safest" to use right now.
Thanks for your replies in advance.

Jeff
