Well the *output* says "Device 0" so it's some time before the released 
version.  I didn't notice the "ASIMD" though, so I thought it could be 
much older - but anyway let's change to the released version and we'll 
know exactly what is running.

Because it does get weirder, hang on:  We switched to 1-based device 
numbers at February 26 and to ASIMD at April 8.  So that means this 
build is... *what*?!  Older than Feb 26 *and* newer than April 8?  Is 
this some custom backport mix?  A rebuild without "make clean"?  I have 
no idea so I'm not keen on discussing the issue until I do.  The easy 
way to get there:  Install the very release, build from scratch and 
re-test.  Then I'll be all ears - then I'll also be able to tell what's 
in line 262 of opencl_wpapsk_fmt_plug.c for sure.
