Victor must have done some magic since he sent me an email saying that he was looking into the OpenCL bug. I can now say that this is gone and in fact GEGL is considerably more stable. I can actually work on 16-bit tiffs without crashing! :) I was so excited about this that I rebuilt both Windows and Mac and posted on my website. Thanks devs!
