I can't speak for Commodore (or any one but myself for that matter)
but I've heard that the USL will not be making the version numbers for
even the reference ports to different architectures be consistent.
So i386R4.0.2 != 68kR4.0.2.  I don't know where C= is at but given
the amount of work to upgrade the entire source base I doubt that
they have upgraded to 4.0.2 let alone 4.0.3.

I'm not sure what you mean by "source code" in your last statement
but I wouldn't assume that all the source is portable or that all
the bug fixes will work on all architectures.
