Legality is a property of the card, not the printing, so it is identical for all 24 versions.
Official Judge Precedents
2 PrecedentsReturn to Dust can always target a second artifact or enchantment; it just won't exile it if it's not your main phase when you cast Return to Dust.
If a spell or ability copies Return to Dust, the copy exiles only the first target artifact or enchantment. This is because the copy wasn't cast at all.
