Yes, but for terrible reasons:  all other InitListExprs seem to get normalized 
to
match the number of elements by padding with implicit zero expressions.

Applying a similar normalization to the altivec literal code would seem to be 
the
sensible solution, but unfortunately it's not sound because OpenCL lifts the 
AltiVec
restriction that element initializers be constant.  I should have a better patch
soon.

John.
