This article is dated 2009. Are these still security holes in Opera?

These are more issues with how Javascript is handled on the web. I'd imagine that js sanitizers have gotten more sophisticated so the callback (first) example may be a bit weak; if you're accepting code from an unknown source, even if you're filtering it first, you're gonna have a bad time.
Opera using Chromium (v8) rather then Carakan. And these aren't really security holes so much as Javascript quirks that you should watch out for.

I doubt. I would like to go through the release notes.
