You should be fairly safe with the pinouts of the LM79xx and LM78xx since they are older parts and the variety of power dissipation packages is small. Some of the SMD versions require that you use pin four (the tab) as an electrical connection (since there is no external connection for pin 2). These should probably be separate symbols.
