Maybe we need some more information.  What kind of drives and motors are you 
using?  
What kind of control inputs are the drives using (analog, digital, velocity, 
torque, position)?

See my first message for this sentence:
"LinuxCNC receives encoder signal and reports the actual position of
the motor - it stops the run, when ferror is exceeded."

BTW in meantime I started to torture another joint - I am now jogging
it back and forth and trying to work out pid parameters and one
strange thing is that sometimes in direction to negative end of joint
(and I have observed that only in this direction) joint continues to
travel at previous speed after the button is released and then in a
second or two it would suddenly stop the motion and start to respond
to any new jog commands.
I do not receive any warning messages about realtime issues. All the
time encoder tracks the position correctly - if I bring it back to 0,
it is actually in the same spot (plus minus half a milimeter, I cannot
measure more precisely) on the machine.
