Dave Yates's verdict on them was "nice lugs, variable brazing" IIRC - he's had a few to repair that just didn't have enough brass flowed into the lugs. I'd imagine most of the ones that are going to break probably have done by now, but if I were buying one I'd have a more-than-usually-careful poke at the joints in case anything was starting to come adrift.
