Subject: 40mm Summicron-C

What is the word on using the 40mm (made for the CL) on an M-series? Aside 
from lacking specific frame-lines, does it perform up to the name "Summicron"? 
 It is extremely compact. I saw one reference to its being a great snapshot 
lens, but another reference implied the M's focusing cam does not work real 
precisely with it. Rumor? Fact? Significance? Many TIA.
