In my opinion we have way too many issues with it and it reduces the
reliability of Calc ( who trusts his OpenCL driver enough to do his
taxes with OpenCL enabled).

Unless someone does some huge refactoring of the OpenCL code and makes
sure that we can trust the OpenCL backend as much as our normal formula
code I would prefer if we disable it. In this case it is a regression
from 40b0b9ab7703a165295b008f47df14d2ec076fb1 but that we don't detect
such fundamental problems because of the different engines and the
different devices makes it hard to rely on the OpenCL code.

Can you give a short description of what the problem actually is?

It would be nice if this could be put onto the ESC agenda so that we
could disable it in 5.2.
