Marmaduke, I would also be interested in making PyOpenCL self contained enough that it can be installed without any further dependencies, in particular no OpenCL implementation. Ideally, 'pip install PyOpenCL' would just succeed no matter what. Pocl seems like a reasonable vehicle for that. The problem is that it has a nontrivial build system... And then there's LLVM... It feels like a substantial amount of engineering effort.
Another avenue I explored for a bit was a conda package. I even got to the point of making that work. I can dig those package recipes up if you're interested. I believe I also put them up on github. For those I did the thing that you asked about, which is link PyOpenCL directly to pocl. Hope that helps, and let me know if you'd like to try and work together to engineer something. Andreas Am 18.
