The general meaning of "Fix Released" is that there is a complete  
version of the software available containing the fix. However, the  
meaning of "available" hasn't really been pinned down (does it mean a  
release version? a beta? an alpha? an upload?), so its meaning varies  
by project. I think in Ubuntu it means "a version containing the fix  
has been uploaded to the repository for the development release", but  
you should ask Ubuntu developers to be sure.
