No, happily not correct.  :-)

Digium tries to make their add-ons work with all major releases of  
Asterisk.  You should be able to use all the named proprietary add-ons  
with 1.4 or 1.6.x versions of Asterisk.  SVN TRUNK releases of course  
are not guaranteed to work with the proprietary add-ons, but any  
stable version should function as you expect.  However, usually the  
add-ons work fine even in those cases where you are using -rc or TRUNK  
("usually" being the operative word here.)
