It is not a bad idea to have a recommended version. But, drivers and 
releases are not good as they must be. For example, using [1] i see 
(again) a segmentation fault on your recent job:

:~/bin/john/magnum/src$ ../run/john -fo:wpapsk-opencl -t -de:0
OpenCL platform 0: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing, 2 device(s).
Using device 0: Juniper
Falha de segmentação (imagem do núcleo gravada)

It is really sad we see this amount of problems using these drivers. 
BTW, what users on john-users prefer: CUDA or OpenCL?
Since OpenCL offers much more hardware/vendor possibilities, please do 
not give up yet.
