An Apple staffer had this to say:

iOS 7 / OS X 10.9, same as Swift 1.0.

Update: I'm guessing this is because the runtime is packaged into the built app / library / framework / whatever the same as with Swift 1.x.

I've tested it as far a iOS 7, no clue on anything lower however you probably shouldn't be supporting iOS 6 anymore.
