Non of the bugs it reportedly fixes I've ever seen. The FAQ says it use the Blitter version of the two EXEs. If you have a faster CPU then you won't see the benefits with the WHDload version. If anyone ever fixed the memory allocation bugs in the original game using WHDLoad then that would be something. But it doesn't. It's one of those cases where you're probably better off using the original installer.
