If I framed a shot with my M135/3.5 at 4m distance with the mythical 16MP 135 frame camera, and then my K-5 (same aperture) from 6m (to get the same framing), I'd end up with the same 'apparent' depth of field?
As John Points out your 135mm lens is still a 135mm lens and will give the same DoF on either format, however you have to move nearer to the subject on a larger format body to get the same field of view and it's the moving closer that reduces the DoF. Likewise moving further away to get the same framing on a smaller format increases DoF because your further from the subject.
If you took the shots from the same distance and then cropped the larger format image to the same as the smaller format then the DOF would be identical because nothing has changed other than the size of the sensor.

PS; just in case we have to, can you confirm if you've any more like William Wallace before we make up our minds
