Did the Heym 88B rifles ever have issues with the wood cracking back behind the action?

In looking at these rifles, it "seems" to me like the 89B structure allows more wood to be behind the action and therefor would be stronger? I have a drilling with the same "profile" as the 88b and had the wood crack behind the action. Just curious if anyone knows if they experienced any of that.
 
Bought my first one new in 2006 or 07. No issues. Currently have two 88b, and have had one other. All have been fine. Have seen a few heavily used 88b's in African owned by PH's and have not heard of any stock issues.
