I feel a lot less stupid now :-)

Hmm.. ok. But is there perhaps another way to isolate the problem?
- From one of the combinations I tried it seemed like dt worked without
issues with only few of the openCL kernels working. Is there maybe
another more systematic way of telling dt to skip some kernels while
using others?
At least we could find out if it is indeed a problem with one or more
kernels, or rather something else...

optirun is the main binary from the Bumblebee project (see
http://www.bumblebee-project.org/)

On NVidia "Optimus" systems the laptop display is only driven by the
internal Intel (Ivy Bridge) graphics adapter. To still get
acceleration from the NVidia card (without using a dedicated external
screen) optirun starts a new headless X server using the nvidia
driver, intercepts OpenGL (and OpenCL it seems) calls, and has those
executed on the nvidia card. The results are then memcopyed into the
video memory of the intel card so you get the output on the laptop screen.

(This is how I understand the whole thing after being forced to use it
for two days now). Unfortunately, the whole bumblebee project, related
tools and tweaks are pretty much bleeding edge I guess - and it might
very well turn out that darktable is just exposing a bug in some other
component involved..
