When a block has unlock events, but the block doesn't have a coinbase TX, a "phantom" transaction will be included in the transaction receipts emitted to the event dispatcher. This doesn't (shouldn't) effect the node's chainstate, so no hard fork is required.
We've decided to close this, because the vesting is nearly completed, and there's practically no ability to get this shipped before the vesting finishes anyways.

The "phantom" transaction mimicks the transaction used in the genesis block to allocate STX to accounts.
