Don't worry unnecessarily. There has been no promise–or even implied
promise–of any changes to PostScript that would affect your ability to produce
an image on your LaserWriter IINT that will correspond to the output of any
other PostScript imagesetter. Indeed, Adobe has been quite insistent that
PostScript will remain a true standard, and I have no reason to doubt them in
this. The only enhancement to PostScript that requires a different or newer
version of the interpreter is Kanji PostScript, which is available in Apple
LaserWriters in Japan; Adobe has mentioned (but not yet delivered) a
downloadable version of the Kanji PostScript code to be used on conventional
LaserWriters.
