Saturation Problem in Camera Raw - Advice Please

One other place to look in colour management is the settings that the individual programs use. In the options for each software package you need to specify the same calibration profile or specify to use the OS default setting depending on how you set it up under windows colour management. It is also worth mentioning that when updates are applied to some software packages, the preferences that were set for colour management are not always carried forward for you.

The other possibility is that the RAW converters are not treating the file the same way. Once you have checked the colour management and the rest of the default settings and eliminated any differences there, there aren't a whole lot of other options left to you other than to create custom profiles to allow bringing them closer together. If you are working with a release candidate, you may find that the next change to that also fixes the specific problems that you are experiencing if it is only an issue with Adobe. There is no doubt that there would be lots of feedback on something like this.

Edit: As Adobe uses lens specific corrections, it may be that someone else's guess of how that lens should perform is not what you want it to be. Assuming it is only the one lens and not all. You may want to replace the lens profile with your own.
