What about the PANTONE libraries shipped with Creative Suite?
Don't tell me there is a difference between those and PANTONE ColorManager :(

The cmyk numbers from Pantone ColorBridge are not simulating any "standard profiles" found with Adobe applications. I've made several test since few years, and never found a cmyk profile close to what Pantone makes thos cmyk values accurate.
You are better to use Pantone colormanager to convert Pantone solids to your KNOWN cmyk color sapce.

The RGB and CMYK equivalents are going to depend on which RGB and which CMYK, and to compound things, my understanding is that while the RGB numbers in the bridge book relate to sRGB, the CMYK numbers are some CMYK space Pantone created and has never released, so they don't relate completely to any commonly used CMYK space. (Although from playing with it over the years, the space seems fairly close to SWOP to me.)
