Yes, that's what I'd expect.

As for xdvipdfmx, I just downloaded the TL'09 .iso, and confirmed that it
has v0.7.8, as shown by xdvipdfmx -h:

  $ /Volumes/TeXLive2009/bin/universal-darwin/xdvipdfmx -h

  This is xdvipdfmx-0.7.8 by Jonathan Kew and Jin-Hwan Cho,
  an extended version of DVIPDFMx, which in turn was
  an extended version of dvipdfm-0.13.2c developed by Mark A. Wicks.
