I do not think so.

I have YDL and Leopard on the same disk and I did not see this problem
ever.  I installed both of them from scratch on a new disk, starting
with Leopard (leaving an empty partition) and then proceeding with
Linux.  Done this on a PowerMac G5 and on a Powerbook G4.

Leopard does not seem to bother with the Apple_UNIX_SVR2 partitions
at all.
