Only ext4 as far as I know - it hangs when it tries to read them (hard reboot required). This only affects users whose Ubuntu partition is prior to window e.g. /dev/sda1 = ext4. Most Windows users have windows on /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2. But this is not always the case. And if you install Wubi to an external or logical drive it increases the likelihood that an ext4 could be encountered.
I think a version of grub4dos that is later than the one wubi users (2007?) should be able to read ext4 fine.
