I find that unlikely for two reasons, convolution code does not use anything 
in lcms, and it crashes too with lcms1 engine (yeah I had to revert to the old 
plugins).

I also noted artefacts with bluring, around the 512 border, sounds suspicious 
to me. Also bluring fails with transparent area (I think it worked in 2.2 but 
my 2.2 build is broken, so I can't check).

Actually, there is OpenGTL 0.9.14 that builds with llvm 2.7 and works with 
krita/trunk (same API as 0.9.13).

ouch, I think we need to be more careful with that :(

However, I noted a significant difference with the result obtains in:
http://www.koffice.org/testresults/status.html I need to check update my 
koffice to see if I get the same results as you.

The pigment tests are actually lcms2 issues. As is 247037. But in case those 
issues are not solves we will ship with only lcms1 color engine, so nothing to 
worry too much about.
