You're right. Upstream needs the local copy since many systems don't have recent enough OpenCL headers, but for Debian I could add a patch to remove the local copy and have a build-dependency on opencl-headers instead.
opencl-headers already has the __vector fix, but as already noted, the bool problem is a deeper "this is a keyword in standard C++" issue:

Reading some other bug reports (e.g. [1]) suggests that compiling with `-std=gnu++11` instead of `-std=c++11` also fixes the problem. Is this a viable workaround? This would be a simple patch to CMakeLists.txt.
Probably; if you want to test on ppc64el there's qemu-debootstrap (~10x slower, but shouldn't be a problem for a package this small), https://wiki.debian.org/CrossCompiling or the porterbox, but several of my FTBFS-on-$arch fixes were uploaded without testing on $arch.
