Doug,
I do believe that 4.2 will come up on the 785 (or a 780 with
the MS780-E) with out the fixes for the new memory controller.
I think that certain error reporting "tasks" will not work
or be started in the kernel and that the annoying message of
unknown Nexus type will be printed at auto-configure time.
Let me know if this is not the case.
Armando.
