From reading the Porsche forums (which I'd say are as reliable as this one ), Porsche seemed to do a "quite/unofficial"; at least early on (I'll admit I haven't kept up with it all for three or four years) recall in that they waited until an engine failure; refused to cover it under warranty then covered if the owner complained enough (EDIT: If you look at the forums, this problem seemed to continue as far as '02/'03).

What brought it to mind was that I was just talking about the Boxster with a prof of engineering at Georgia Tech a few weeks ago while I was in Atlanta and someone drove up in a new GT2.

If Porsche eventually covered (under warranty) all the engine failures then bravo for them but it still seems they loath to admit there was a problem for quite a long time.
