Either GCC or Khronos -- I'd be inclined to blame GCC for this, since the
altivec.h header is unusable from standard C++ code (assuming you don't hack
around it by undef'ing "vector" and "bool" after inclusion or by preventing it
from defining them in the first place somehow), however last time somebody
reported this [1] the bug was closed as invalid, so apparently some people from
the GCC community think that this is the (unfortunate) expected behaviour --
Assuming they're right, cl_platform.h should stop including altivec.h (or hack
around it somehow) because it makes cl.h unusable from standard C++ code on PPC
platforms.
