The overlap between SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 is 100%:

% openssl ciphers SSLv2 | md5
fe5ff23432f119364a1126ca0776c5db
% openssl ciphers SSLv3 | md5
bde4e4a10b9c3f323c0632ad067e293a
% openssl ciphers TLSv1 | md5
bde4e4a10b9c3f323c0632ad067e293a
% openssl ciphers TLSv1.2 | md5
26c375b6bdefb018b9dd7df463658320

Thus, if you disable all SSL 3.0 ciphers, you also disable TLS 1.0.
