Yes, you can use the new editor / tokernizer and the new code with an older controller. We used either the 2002 or 2001 controller with our prototype robot and the exact same code as our real robot this year and we did not have any problems with it. It worked exactly like the 2003 controller.
As you mentioned, it's odd that the problem is only on ports 1 & 3. Both of those are read in and stored in 'oi_swA' so that's the first place to look. I've fogotten some of the common coding problems in the old controller, but the ones I remember - telling the controller you want to grab the byte from the stream, and actually including the byte in the stream - look good. Try printing out 'oi_swA' immediately after it's read in from the data stream.
