$ enblend -v -V
enblend 4.2

Extra feature: image cache: no

Building with OpenCL possibility was removed just before releasing 4.2. So the code is still here, including this print, but there is no way I’ll add a patch to compile with a feature upstream concealed on purpose. This will have to wait for 4.3. However, I’ve activated OpenMP support, that should do some good. ;)
