You can always borrow a FF Canon an adapter and do a bit of surgery on
the lens. It would only be a little more crippled when if and when the
Pentax FF camera comes out than it is now.

Thanks Bob.
I loved the M24~35 for film but I suspect its glory days are gone. As a
lens for cropped format its angles of view would be a bit ordinary. Keeping
it in the hope of a 24mm X 36mm Pentax DSLR might not work out so well as it
has a rather small exit pupil which goes against the current thinking WRT
telecentric optical design, besides which it has no A position.
OTOH it may be one of those rare lenses that performs as well on a DSLR as
it did on a film SLR. We won't know until/unless a digital 24 x 36 Pentax
arrives.

Very nice. That 24-35mm lens is a little gem. I still have one for my MX.
