And we need to provide default implementations for those extra math functions for all the platforms we're going to support, including default host implementations.


Can you provide an example of a conforming program that can't be compiled without OpenMP support? Regardless of the use of any device-specific functions (which isn't covered by the standard, of course, but might be needed in practice), the code still needs to be compilable by the host in order to generate the host-fallback version. This doesn't change that. Thus, any program that uses anything from this math.h, etc. needs to compile for the host, and thus, likely compiles without OpenMP support. Maybe I'm missing your point, however.
