I'm not sure what you mean by secure. But my experience that it's quite esy to have documents that work in 1.0 but that generate an error in 2.0 (even if version="1.0") but that you have to try quite hard to accidentally have a stylesheet that produces non-error results that are necessarily different in version 1 and version 2 (although it's easy to generate test examples where the behaviour is different, just by looking at the appendix that lists the limits of compatibility mode.) That doesn't mean you'll get the same results, but often that is because of processor differences not language differences. By far the most common case of differences that we've seen are sorting, and that's a difference between saxon 6 and saxon 9 not a difference between xslt 1 and 2. the default changed from being a locale-specific sorting to unicode codepoint order which mainly (if you are English) has the effect of changing the relative order of upper and lower case letters. sticking a lang="en" on xsl:sort gets you back where you were...
