I did open the back, and the emmc is well seated. The boot from the emmc is still cranky and intermittent.

Turns out the U-Boot for Manjaro, both the Pine64 version and from Manjaro web site, is not as reliable as default Debian I had been using. Whence I restored those boot files, (but left "/boot" and "/" alone), Manjaro works great. (At least all that I have played with.)
Just the u-boot.itb file or everything in the boot partition?
Thanks.

Actually the Debian image does not even have a uboot file, it does have "rk3399-pinebookpro.dtb" and a couple of others.
