Besides setting the proper PATH, you will likely want to use the -gpu or
-opencl make target to build JtR for, not -cuda. Our OpenCL kernels are
more numerous and (maybe counter-intuitively) generally faster than CUDA
ones. So you'll probably want to use the -opencl formats, not -cuda ones.
In part this is related to auto-tuning, which is available in many of
our OpenCL-enabled JtR formats, but not in any of the CUDA ones - so
to get good speeds out of CUDA you'd have to edit some .h files to fit
your specific GPU better (there is some info on that in doc/README-CUDA).
With most of our OpenCL-enabled formats, there's no such issue - so just
use those instead of CUDA ones.
