Not significant fixes, no, but there are some minor ones. At the moment, I know of no one interested in running pthreaded ubik, so there's a bit of chicken and egg -- i.e., I know what fixes need to be done, but need some people willing to run it and give a green light on it (or to kick me and tell me it's still broken). And I'd need to carve out some time to work on it.
