You would never hear public admission of a broken process from any company in this industry fixed by somebody else.
As for link, the amount you find in AMDs Annual Report 2002, which is a good read for other things as well.

As for IBM-AMD joint development:
IBM has a four-year experience lead using SoI. AMD uses IBMs SoI-Design Library resulting therof.
AMDs SoI-process is significantly different from IBMs currently. E.g. they use different Wafers, to start with.

As for what IBM is interested in is probably less the (limited)experience of AMDs SoI-process-technology but more the contribution of AMDs R&D-Ressources for future nodes.
FinFet-Transistors, things like that.
