To me it is a mistery. I tried to copy "my code" and change variable 
names and it fails too.
Why it works on some formats and not on others? No idea.
I tried  CL_MEM_READ_ONLY / CL_MEM_READ_WRITE / etc. Nothing helped. At 
least, this makes sense.

So, this cryptsha256 (and 512 and raw) code could start failing someday? 
Maybe.

Even crazier; commit a99312a 
<https://github.com/claudioandre/magnum-jumbo/commit/a99312acac0bc0232776c1349e19ec4a4c40b64e> 
works on Radeon 6770, GTX 570 and CPUs. Without doing the proper 
allocation? Yes. How? It shouldn't!!

So, for a while, there are bug(s) somewhere!
