Re:Apple patent: Method and apparatus for executing program ... by jonhendry on Monday July 02, 2012 @12:26PM (#4189502)
Apparently not.

At the gcc page you linked:

Example output using -ftree-vectorizer-verbose=2:

vect-1.c:82: note: not vectorized, possible dependence between data-refs a[i_124] and a[i_83]

Apple's patented method would appear to allow vectorization in this case, whereas gcc fails.
