Core seems to be working fine at least with my PicoBlaze SW from previous projects, but I've tried copyBlaze with wb_uart communication controller (by Federico Aglietti, I didn't used enclosed UART core with same name). CopyBlaze failed to establish correct handshake. I ran behavioral simulation and core was frozen, also Wishbone master signals were different then in specification. I tried a to make changes in core, but I wasn't succesful. I hope developers will make a patch soon.
