Or will everyone wishing >to get source have to go out and get a SV.4 licence? I think you misunderstand what "when bsd and System V are merged" means. It means that S5R4 will be picking up BSD stuff, not that S5 and BSD will become one and the same thing. As far as I know, Berkeley isn't going to convert to S5R4, so presumably a 32V licence should continue to be sufficient.
