Use a configuration management system (I recommend monotone) to maintain
versions of the Ada code that match the versions of OpenCL.
When you fix a bug in version 1.0, propagate the changes to 1.1 ...
That mimics the actual development of OpenCL; that's what CM systems are
for.
This is "massive code duplication", but it is manageable with any
decent CM system.
