I am confused, didn't Intel say they were disengaging from LLVM as a platform for OpenCL?

Nope, they don't want it as a GLSL compiler.

According to Ian Romanick answer on Steam Dev Days (at 39:03) team that working on OpenCL is completely unrelated to team that working on Mesa.

And the next round of tests of OpenCL implementations with inclusion of free drivers will be made ...
When?

Hi Michael,
The following statement is not fully accurate:
"Intel's Beignet open-source OpenCL implementation for their Linux graphics driver now switches to LLVM/Clang 3.5 as its preferred version. "

Till now, the preferred LLVM/Clang is still 3.3 not 3.5. As there is a important bug outstanding there in LLVM/Clang 3.5. After that bug get fixed,
I will switch preferred version to 3.5.

BTW, I just made a new release for beignet 0.8.0. You can get the release notes at:

Gentoo Overlay

I'm still maintaining a gentoo overlay with modified mesa ebuilds integrating beignet:
