No. Major changes need an update to the major version number.

See for example:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/versioning/spec/versioning2.html#wp89940

Of course, Java breaks its own rules. e.g. the changes to the java.sql interfaces
between 1.5 and 1.6 - but then that's really between 5.x and 6.x in Sun's bizarre versioning
of java. ;-)
