I forgot to mention that I *did* apply another patch, for seeing the 
actual error on that SYNC FAILED occasion:

diff --git a/src/common_opencl_pbkdf2.c b/src/common_opencl_pbkdf2.c
index c2c17e7..aa43382 100644

- 
HANDLE_CLERROR(CL_SUCCESS!=clWaitForEvents(1,&evnt),"SYNC FAILED");
+               HANDLE_CLERROR(clWaitForEvents(1,&evnt),"SYNC FAILED");

                 HANDLE_CLERROR(clFinish(cmdq[platform_no][dev_no]), 
"clFinish error");



I believe this is correct.
