I did another update:

sudo pacman -U
http://sourceforge.net/projects/manjarodev/files/users/philm/thus/thus-0.8.8.0.906-0.1-any.pkg.tar.xz

See here:

https://git.manjaro.org/core/thus/commit/5bc23ce7ea60d6e9b4d3d28a8934b80aed0ffd31

Thx for clarifying how you test it. So does the uefi-boot support work? 
I can't test UEFI here and on Virtualbox it don't work.
