That isn't correct. There are patches backported to the bitbake 1.50, 1.48 and 1.46 branches which mean the older bitbake will accept the new syntax. This means that converted layers will work with older releases, as long as someone has updated to the new version of bitbake for that stable series (and the later worked with that release in the first place!).
