I've started playing with C++ AMP and its really very straightforward,
if currently trting that I can't get full double support on Win7.
If you can support attributes that do the equivalent of restrict (and
the key here is that the attribute is involved in overload resolution)
then it could be very handy; I'm not sure that OpenCL C compilers being
imlemented in LLVM is relevant though. AMP is essentially managing a
translation to HLSL, so the equivalent is to translate to OpenCL C and
let the vendor compiler kick in at runtime.

(Oh please; when can I have a nice MSI that doesn't need a stupid
not-current mingw and is properly independant of that stuff? ;-( I'll
do more than lurk and actually try rust, but not until then. Life is to
short.)
