Mac OS X 10.6 (and later): The OpenCL GPGPU implementation is built on Clang and LLVM compiler technology. This requires parsing an extended dialect of C at runtime and JIT compiling it to run on the CPU, GPU, or both at the same time. In addition, several performance sensitive pieces of Mac OS X 10.6 were built with llvm-gcc such as OpenSSL and Hotspot. Finally, the compiler_rt library has replaced libgcc and is now a part of libsystem.dylib.
