Per table 5-3-1 of the AIM the speeds are still there and unchanged.
MHA-6000 200KIAS
6001-14K 230
14001+ 265

Some charted patterns may be restricted to 175. Those will be marked with some sort of icon.

Military fields with holding fixes are different
USAF - 310 KIAS
USN - 230
And I thought air force wings were made of lead;-)

At my airline we usually hold at VmanF0 unless icing or other conditions preclude it.
