They shouldn’t and they won’t. cl_float3 is identical in size, alignment, and behavior to cl_float4.

It’s really just there to let you write self-documenting code. You can just as well use cl_float4 and forget that cl_float3 ever existed. It’s a convenience but the opencl types such as float and double are aligned to powers of 2 (cl_float2, cl_float4, cl_float8, and cl_float16 which are aligned to 8, 16, 32, and 64 bytes respectively).

Typedef is just saying “use this type but call it another name.” What’s being done with “typedef cl_float4 cl_float3” is that you’re being allowed to say your variable is a type of cl_float3 but to the machine, it still sees it as a cl_float4. No matter what you call it, the machine will still treat it the same.

In a kernel it must be an error, not in the host program, as the spec only defines the kernel language definition. From the spec:
"float3 pos;
pos.z = 1.0f; // is legal
pos.w = 1.0f; // is illegal"
This only is illegal for a float3, not a cl_float3.
On a side note, the header file that defines cl_float3 is straight from Khronos, not something that we create. So if it is behavior you want changed, you need to go through Khronos to get it changed.

/* cl_float3 is identical in size, alignment and behavior to cl_float4. See section 6.1.5. */
typedef  cl_float4  cl_float3;
