No GPU APPs For Platform (Linux ati_opencl) Since System Update (new Mesa?)

(moderation:
I see that there is another thread about ATI GPU works being invalid. That's not my situation. I was recently returning a lot of valid results from BRP4G and BRP6.
Since my system update, which included a new Mesa, E@H says there's no match for my platform. Everything was fine until a few days ago.
Additionally, though not as important, I have a GPU result the is finish and I it it stuck in state "Uploading" I've tried updating several times and it will not upload. Related?
No the uploading unit is

No the uploading unit is probably not related since it doesn't count against any cache size you have set for getting units. Lots of people are having problems getting new units right now though, so you are not alone, the 6 units ran out a couple of days ago and the 4 units are close to doing the same thing. I don't know if the Server can't keep up or if there is something else going on, but the problem is probably not on your end.
One thing to make sure of is see that your drivers still says 'open_cl' under your computers, yours are hidden so I can't check that. If it's not there you may try reloading the drivers, but right now it may not help anyway as they just aren't sending out very many units. Have you allowed units from other projects yet? If not try that and see if your gpu still works, if so then you KNOW it's not on your end.
I agree about the stuck WU.

I agree about the stuck WU. I aborted it. Too bad, it was all done.
Where is it supposed to say open_cl? BOINC says my GPUs are OpenCL 1.1
SETI and MW@Home will sent me GPU work but it fails. In fact, E@H sent me 4 GPU WUs and those also failed. I've had to disable ATI GPU work for all my projects. It's definitely a problem with platform compatibility.
