I think you're dead-on target with guesstimating the reasons, Pete. However, in the intervening hours I've made something of a discovery.
Several of my guildmates have rune and chippy vaults (we're currently battling the Cruel Addiction as a group, seems). After much cajoling and some actual volunteerism, I managed to combine their resources and my own resources to scrape up
3 Eld runes, 3 Sol runes (hard, we're crafters, too), 1 chipped sapphire, 2 Pul runes (THIS cost me an arm and a leg, everyone wants to upgrade their weapons), 3 chipped diamonds and an empty 3 socket Cryptic sword that someone wanted to save for a Fury runeword. Every last one of these items are from 1.09 drops.
However, after applying my Betty Crocker Cubery cookbook, I ended up with a Shael, Um and Tir... cubed in a 1.10 beta environment. Plopping them into the Cryptic... voila:
So while 1.09 runes may not function as 1.10 runes, it does seem that they may be CUBED into 1.10 runes. One has to wonder if cubing runes into the required runes for various other runewords that have been crashing computers would be required as well?
Interesting, no?

Garnered Wisdom --
If it has more than four legs, kill it immediately.
Never hesitate to put another bullet into the skull of the movie's main villain; it'll save time on the denouement.
