Yes, that's why I was asking and my default assumption would be that the
bug is gone.

Did it was fully reproducible by anyone? 
If so the bug is definitely gone, slirp here is fully functional with
current u-m-l.
Also, TT mode is deprecated, unset and unused (skas0 is preferred anyway):

$ grep MODE_TT ~/devel/debian/uml/pkg-uml/trunk/src/user-mode-linux/config.i386
# CONFIG_MODE_TT is not set
