I have now tried colour management on 1.3.3.8 and seem to get comparable results, so far: http://people.angulosolido.pt/~gustavo/scribus/cmyk-workflow/sweet-scribus-cm/ At first I didn't realize the I had to check the "Use ICC profile" option on the PDF generation. The tooltip says it's used for embedding a profile into the images, but if the option is not checked the colours seem to go wrong...
