Consider in 2004:

The 2nd passer throws the ball 1-yard beyond the NZ we all agree you can't have RTP as per 9-4-3. If he happened to be in or behind the NZ you can definitely have it.

Consider in 2005:

A 2nd pass is illegal. Now what if the 2nd passer throws the pass in or behind the NZ. What do you have? I'm not sure you can have RTP unless they addressed the wording in 9-4-3. I haven't received my 2005 rules book yet.
9-4-3 from 2004 is now 9-4-4 in 2005, but the wording is exactly the same.

The rule does not say anything about the pass being legal or not, so I think you would have RTP along with Illegal Forward Pass. Double fouls, replay down.
