  I haven't tested with IBM divers yet since i don't have the hardware
but since they claim to be CL 1.1 compatible you won't have to change
anything.

However it is well known that the same program running on GPUs often
would not perform optimal on CPUs, so you may have to do specific
optimizations for Cell to be able to run fast-as-possible. (vendor
programming guides etc.)
