To your point the original 400mm f/4 DO tests very well in terms of resolution but the images definitely don't have the pop of the other big white lenses in most situations.  I don't know how much this applies to the 35L's as from what I see these isn't any obvious downside going to the mk2 but the upside isn't worth the extra money for me.  Obviously for others the cost of upgrading is well worth it.  I know if I was offered the two lenses for the same price I would take the mk2 without hesitation.
