I used the PS CS integrated RAW convertor which I have found the best for various reasons. But you were absolutely correct, I did some experiments and found to my surprise that the Pentax convertor didn't make such a mess of the same RAW file however I found that if I removed the minimal sharpening that is set as default (25 thingies) then the edge artifacts on the orange disappear. Strangely it's only at the edges of this colour where the problem can be observed, the default sharpening has never given me bad results before, I'll be more aware now.
