I've had unison Gs on my Hubbert for nearly 20 years now (no, not the same strings, I have put new ones on now and then!) and have little trouble keeping them in tune. I do have issues with some of the higher tangents but I'm not sure it's the fault of the strings as it's not consistent but seems to have more to do with humidity and such.

If I had a second gurdy I'd be very interested in trying the octave Gs, though.*

trying to keep the strings in unison was next-to-impossible.
