My kermit says:

C-Kermit>version
C-Kermit 5A(165) ALPHA, 20 Jan 91, NeXT Mach 1.0
 Numeric: 501165


I have been using it over a 19.2 kBaud line for some time now and it
works beautifully... I also have the packet size up to 4000 bytes, which
gretly increases file transfer throughput.

The sources were posted to sonata, I do believe.

BTW:  i also have a modified version of the Makefile that has a new
make.  Add these lines to Kermit's Makefile near the bsd43 line (it is
only three lines, the second one wrapped....):

bsd43d:
        @echo Making C-Kermit $(CKVER) for 4.3BSD with acucntrl and max buf...
        make wermit "CFLAGS= -DBSD43 -DDYNAMIC -DACUCNTRL -DNETCONN -O"


this will make a version of 4.3bsd kermit that allows for the outrageous
buffer size that I like to use (4,000 bytes).  This works on rt_r3,
pmax, and microvaxen, haven't tried it on a Sun.
