The answer is: it depends. Rsyslog uses versioning in the plugin interface and also uses versioning in all internal objects. But there are still some non-object accesses. As long as a plugin is of the same version as the plugin interface that rsyslogd is compiled to, it works - provided that all objects it needs are implemented in the core (for v3, this must not necessarily be the case, especially if you use a new plugin with an older rsylogd build). The bottom line, of course, is that mixing versions should be avoided. But the good news is that rsyslog and the plugins detect incompatible versions and, if found, the plugin is simply not activated. So it is a predictable failure case (again, not 100% safe for the v3 case as it is not purely object based so far).
