The definitive cut of the movie is somewhere between the original theatrical cut and Friedkin's 2001 re-edit.
Some of the additional scenes really work but the intrusive over-use of CG and the fact that because the ADR was never finished on the final scene, the movie ends fairly abruptly, with the final cementing of Kinderman and Dyer's friendship not shown.
It would be nice if a branching version was going to be made available, or at the very least, the two different cuts included.
