we did fix some of them.
Others it's a bit unclear. Fixes went in that made my particular testcase stop triggering things, but more fuzzing would crash in similar ways. So it's unclear if the actual problem was fixed or if the fix just shook things up enough to make the original bug (probably a race condition of some sort) harder to trigger.
