I have tested with installer version 451.9. The installer retrieved package partman-btrfs 18ubuntu1.1 from http://de.ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports//pool/main/p/partman-btrfs/partman-btrfs_18ubuntu1.1_all.udeb

When I tried to reproduce the issue, the following warning message was displayed:

btrfs root file system not supported without separate /boot
Your root file system is a btrfs file system. This is not supported by the boot loader used by default by this installer.
You should use a small /boot partition with another file system, such as ext4.

From my perspective, the bug is fixed. Also the error message does explain very well what is wrong and what to do about it.
