Does the 94xx finally fix the frickin reset issues?

And will the errata documents be tested properly before release to the
public?

The fact that the reset on the 93xx is broken, and the errata said it
wasn't cost us a lot of money - no kidding.

Furthermore, when is the ETA for this chip revision?
