That link doesn't work for me, however from elsewhere:

"Boeing has announced around 55 of its flagship 787 Dreamliners have the 'potential' to develop a fuselage shimming problem, but said that the fault was being fixed. The discovery of the issue in early February is the latest snag to hit the showpiece but troubled jet, which suffered extensive production delays. "In all the airplanes that we built, up to airplane 55 in round numbers have the potential for the shimming issue," said the aviation giant's vice president Jim Albaugh at a media roundtable in Singapore."
