  The reason Metacomco hasn't announced any updates to Lattice C (or any of
their stuff), is because ... they have quit the software market.  I believe
the owner now runs a hotel :-(
  HiSoft have taken over Lattice C - v5 is advertised as producing very
fast code, >2000 Dhrystones/sec!!  Hopefully they will give better support
than Metacomco ever did...  I'm not sure, but I think you can upgrade from
MCC v3 to HiSoft v5 at a cost.
