Yes, looks like it. If you are using custom
`org-export-async-init-file', you need to make sure that Org mode
available to that init file has the same version as the Org mode that
initiates export process. Basically, you need to set the right load-path.

byte-compiled code is a function passed by Org mode to the async Emacs.
That function takes care about re-creating the right Elisp environment
inside the async process.
