Here's an example.
Lab CMM Cyan Mag Yell
Black
------- -------------- ------- ------- ------- -------
50 0 0 (ACE) 48.83 40.60 41.37 15.95
50 0 0 (HDM) 49.08 40.64 40.73 15.79
50 0 0 (Argyll) 49.08 40.64 40.73 15.79
50 0 0 (PatchTool) 49.09 40.64 40.73 15.79
In Argyll, I use:
icclu -v -fb -ia SWOP2006_C3.icc, and get
50.000000 0.000000 0.000000 [Lab] -> Lut -> 0.490807 0.406393 0.407315
0.157936 [CMYK]
I use InDesign CS5.5 to carry the conversion in the color palette.
I use ColorToolbox ColorCalculator to look up the CMYK value from Lab = 50 0
0.
PatchTool uses LittleCMS libraries.
In all these cases, I use the same output profile.
I hope I'm doing something wrong in InDesign, but I think I have all the
ColorSettings right.
The difference may not look all that extreme, number wise, but visually, it
shows, and any instrument picks is up.

That's a bit surprising. I know that Adobe have gone to a lot of trouble to
ensure numerical accuracy of ACE, and that Marti often cross checks
LittleCMS against ACE.
There are a few interesting traps for the unwary CMM implementor in in
dealing with linear light (ie. RAW) RGB profiles if you create an optimized
for speed one step conversion, but that shouldn't usually apply to CMYK.
There could be some variation in the nature of the interpolation within the
grid (two common choices are simplex (AKA tetrahedral) interpolation and
N-linear interpolation.
Do you have a specific example ? (ie. profile and the values you were
converting ?)
