Hi, The truth is, I don't know. I've not processed any of the current version of TX in the latest version of Rodinal - Rodinal has, over the years, gone through a few changes itself.
I should try the combination. The last time I used TX with Rodinal the results were very grainy, although the tonality was beautiful. But that was TX of two generations back. If you decide to try it, I'd suggest a strong dilution of Rodinal, long development times, and minimal agitation. When using Rodinal I usually use a 1:100 dilution with an appropriately adjusted EI, and agitate gently for 5 seconds (two inversions with a twist) once per minute. LOnger intervals between agitation has been reported to yield excellent results, but I've not yet tried anything past 5 seconds every two minutes, but that was not on TX.
