Yes.  I'm pretty confident that it is not fixed.

You should be able to duplicate the bug on any system from sources after
Feb 19th, 2000 I think.  Just set USA_RESIDENT=YES in your /etc/make.conf,
start sysinstall and exit right away.  check /etc/make.conf and you'll
find USA_RESIDENT=NO.

I'm currently working on a 'better' patch... if you are interested.
