Both are 8kV air discharge, both require performance criteria B, 
but I'd say the current version of 61000-4-2  is more severe. 

Doesn't the current IEC 61000-4-2:1995 + A1:1998 version 
require a minimum of 50 hits per test point whereas the 1984 
version didn't?  I don't remember the specifics of the 84 version 
and I don't have any reference to it.
