I can never get the versions straight...v1.06 was the last patch released before LoD was in final testing. Patches v1.07 and v1.08 were combined and released together just about the time that the LoD game was shipped for sale to the public. If you installed LoD with out getting any additional patches, you were effectively playing v1.07 from what the expansion updated the game to.
The LoD mercs could get equipment in v1.07, but the +skills modifiers did not start working at all for them until patch v1.09.
from patch.txt 1.09 section

No major patchs since then. Most of the 1.09a, b, c and d patch work was for computer hardware and connectivity issues (along with a very few anti-hacking bug fixes).
