Warning on the kernel upgrade: it froze my system, see #768483.

Linking it to the video driver doesn't help because those currently 
default to installing them all (which is where I got the idea of doing 
the same for ICDs): you still need to properly handle the "ICD installed 
(platform) but no hardware (device)" case, which as noted in this bug 
and in 
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-opencl-devel/Week-of-Mon-20140421/000122.html 
, many things currently don't.

If you want to participate in more general OpenCL-in-Debian discussions, 
yes; anyone can do so.  It does receive some spam, but typically only 
every few days.
