If you can't make a great lens, just fix the result with software. It's the 
21st Century way.

My first hit when I did that was John Paul Caponigro:

" Chromatic aberration is easily corrected with most RAW file converters,
such as Adobe?s Camera Raw and Adobe Lightroom. .)  Recent versions of
Canon?s dedicated RAW image processing software, Digital Photo Professional
(version 3.2 or higher), have a new tool tab with special commands that will
automatically remove chromatic aberration from your images, as well as
sliders for ultra-precise manual control of color fringing.
