If/when it comes out, it sounds like it will be most easily accessible via OpenCL. The architecture sounds similar to cell, have a standard processor the OS runs on, then run super computing jobs on all the worker processors.
I'd say the best bet we have to getting clojure in those environments is working with the analyzer and compiler developments that were made with clojurescript. Then you can emit native code or something a little bit more portable. Otherwise, its just basically going to be wrappers over openCL. I don't see a future in running jvms on each processor unless the jvm gets some builtin support for running threads on the worker processors. One easy to envision future would be using the reducers library abstractions, you could offload this work onto those worker processors.
