I'm working in vision, and I'd be very interested in OpenCL headers.

Don't worry. I'll do the packaging if needed. I prefer to have a bunch of
examples that test them though.

I think this way is done to make the floating point constants portable.
Maybe it works if you hand shift it, something like

No it is not :) See also e.g. unit "typ" in unit numlib for ways to do it
CPU specific.

I tried to test with calculation, but it seems fpc/Delphi don't support that
(something like:

const x =  -double($9abc) shl $12;  // sign (mantisse) SHL exponent

)
