As I wrote in:

"... change that to only set OS_TIMER to 0 when
building with OpenCL support with AMD SDK specifically (since OS_TIMER 1
is preferable when we can have it), but to do it from both header files."
I think this is what we should do, and I am leaving the task for you
(identify and use the right #ifdef line).
By "both header files" I mean x86-64.h and x86-sse.h. I think this is
not relevant to any other archs currently.
Thanks,
Alexander
