Here's an interesting cross-platform (runs on Windows and Linux) open source IDE that sits on top of the GNU ARM tools:

That works great for multiple CPUs, but would be a disaster for GPU architectures.
I think that the real benefit of GPUs for transcoding will be seen once people start making new as-yet unimagined encoding schemes that are designed to do data parallel tasks that wouldn't even be considered on a traditional CPU.
