Thanks guys, I've resolved it, and can now spend the day enjoying my glorious 28 MFlops!

The disk version worked, but showed a yellow fullscreen warning saying "68040 installation alert - do not use 68040.library on a 68060" during startup (also shows up when I tried to fiddle with CPU settings, but only in 4.4). This was the clue I needed.

I already had mmulib installed (with 68060.library), but it doesn't (or atleast didn't for me) update 68040.library so I was using version 37.30 of that. Copying in the new version from mmulib allowed me to run both v.4.4 and 4.5b12 from WB.

Noticed a few things apart from that: v4.5b12 doesn't show the CPU type (it's correctly displayed as 68060 in v4.4) and both versions shows the FPU type as 68060+68882, don't know if that's intended? (I found a screenshot online of v4.0 that just shows FPU as 68060 for someone else). In the "Drives" screen my PFS partitions show up as either "Not a DOS disk"/"FFS International" respectively.

In v4.5b12 if I press "SPEED" and then try to scroll the list libraries list it hangs (I have to hold down ctrl+amiga+amiga to force a reboot), this doesn't happen in 4.4. (NM, I guess this is a known bug)
