No it isn't. The regression is caused by unintentional change of return
value for never scheduled callout. The fix is now being tested, see PR 210884.

The piece of ND6 code that Hans quotes isn't affected by change of return
value for scheduled+running callout, since ND6 doesn't create callouts in
this tricky state.
