Mmm the Carbon port is somewhat the original C code from way way 
back. Yes it still runs under system 7.5.5. The Cocoa port, is obj-c 
So they really have no common code overlap. But there are features in 
the Cocoa port that will never be in the Carbon port because of what 
Cocoa is.

3.2.7b3 mac VM is the better choice. All other versions have 
interesting bugs, and as I pointed out this morning they are 10% 
slower. This includes the classic version too under os7/8/9. So one 
should upgrade...
