I've read people at home theater forums complain about Lucas cutting up Williams' scores for the prequels so I wonder if this is what they're referring to, but it seems like a lot of the music from the prequels is reused wholesale (rather than as motifs). In Revenge of the Sith, the music that plays while Anakin is crash landing the Invisible Hand is from the track "Escape from Naboo" on the Episode I soundtrack, and the music that plays when Anakin and the 501st march on the Jedi Temple is from "Love Pledge and the Arena" on the Episode II soundtrack. The music during the arena battle in Episode II (after the Jedi arrive) seems to be cut up from "Panaka and the Queen's Protectors" and "The Droid Invasion" from the Episode I soundtrack.
The only time in the OT that I know that music was reused was that the Battle of Yavin track was using during the Battle of Endor when the Executor is destroyed and the music from when Han and Luke man the quad turrets is reused when the fighters enter the Death Star II. And even then it's not precisely the same; it doesn't fool the application for identifying music.
I could be wrong and music is more frequently reused, but I think typically when the OT does it it does so as motifs, rather than simply repeating a track like the prequels. And the way I determined that the music is identical is I used an application for identifying music on the music from Episode II and III and it brought up tracks from Episode I and I & II, respectively.
