As far as EU clients go they are not that far behind in payouts. That said, I would be truly disappointed if we didn't get our EU payout before Xmas. The money is there and it should go out.
I think it has been a big mistake (and I suppose I might be expected to say this) to have any appearance of EU funds going to USA webmasters. All this has done is to portray both sides as being in peril. If it is not the case that EU funds are being diverted this rumour should be squelched quickly.
The main issue for me in all this is psychological stress more than the money. Having a number of my sites stuck in this limbo is very depressing.

It does appear some EU webmasters have more or less been paid up to date. Others are several months behind and have had nothing but excuses - some going back four and five months.
In other instances, tho I can't verify this at the moment, some EU webmasters claim that only partial payments have been made.
Judging by the numbers of outstanding queries and payments, it does appear EU activities have problems as well. Who knows, but there may be a great temptation to rob Peter to pay Paul when you need to cover overheads.
Basically this is a company at the bullshit stage - all other stuff they have said has not materialized. I suspect there will be major problems shortly unless some benefactor steps in with pots of money.
I wish them well if they are genuinely trying and not just caught up in a vicious circle attempting to keep the operation afloat for another week.
