No, S9 UCI is sold including the current (then 1.2) Classic GUI and the Necchi
book! (But I agree, it is not completly clear at Shredderchess at the moment)

OTH I guess I can run it in older native Shredder GUIs,

No problem, S9 uses the new UCI protocol, eg refutations lines, but that
protocoll is downward compatible. Because of that compatibility the protocoll is
not officialy renamed to UCI 2. This means that of course S9 is able to run on
"old" Classic GUIs even if there is no need to do so because you get the latest
version of the GUI.
