No, it only fails to compile against 1.6 because it fails to meet the new interface, there is nothing to stop it running on 1.6. Though again I caution that some behaviour will be 'different' between 1.4 and 1.6. The only specific thing I have found so far is in the unique classifier which has different values in the classes (both are valid, just different).
