[Pkg-gmagick-im-team] Bug#630321: Opencl

[Marc J. Driftmeyer]

I'm not too concerned with OpenCL support in a free version, nor have I 
ever been.

Seeing as AMD and Nvidia, not to mention Intel are releasing their 
implementations directly for BSD or similar license use my needs have 
been fulfilled.

More to the point, all three have to adhere to Khronos specification 
created by Apple and now in their committee for all to leverage.

That's all that really needs to happen.

I would suggest when AMD releases their opencl sdk that will be working 
with LLVM/Clang that the Clang package guys coordinate with the AMD 
non-free driver packagers and make sure the AMD SDK for OpenCL is 
included in the AMD fglx driver files ala what Nvidia package 
maintainers do for the nvidia non-free driver stack.
