I don't have it yet, but here's a blurb I caught on EN World:

"Races of Spelljammer presents PHB-style racial write-ups for the giff 
insectare, and scro. These were well done, with only a few inconsistencies 
that'd rub old-school fans the wrong way. Mostly, the scro part doesn't 
mention Dukagsh at all (though "Dukgash" is mentioned as a male scro 
name), and it says scro worship principles of self-improvement; while that 
may be what Dukagsh wanted for his people, it's still odd to have him cut 
out. Abreviated stats for the scro's terrestrial leader, the Ultimate High 
Overlord, have him as being just a fighter 4/monk 12. Also, apparently 
scro have a natural +1 CR, despite having no racial hit dice, if you look 
at the sidebar on scro NPCs. I'd also liked to have seen something on 
Klikral, the insectare "godlike entity" that apparently physically lives 
on their homeworld."
