All of our GPGPU (OpenCL but kept an eye toward OpenACC) and GNURadio
development is now Linux. Tried FreeBSD. As Dr. Smith would say:

 Oh the pain...

OpenMP now works under clang but it was a problem area. At the time
C++-11 support was problematic (e.g., the C++ standard library under
clang was significantly slower for some containers). A coffin nail was
the lack of Fortran support from clang -- mixing clang C/C++ and
gfortran was a pain (makefile management, debug, etc). 

The path of least resistance was simply to move to Ubuntu.
