In an article posted by the American Suppressor Association (ASA) on November 4th, 2014 it was reported that the ATF expects to rule on the so called "41p" rule change implemented by Obama's executive order.
It appears that, if the rule change is implemented (and I don't see how it won't be) then one of the primary benefits that gun trusts have provided may be taken away. Specifically, it is now more likely that it will be necessary to get a chief law enforcement officer's signature on any paperwork used to apply for the transfer and stamp.
This is of course simply one more consequence of ceding power to a government that has unquenchable thirst for the same.
As of now it appears that the ATF is predicting the matter will be "heard" around May of 2015. It may be that now is the time to get a gun trust lest it go the way of fully automatic arms pre-86'.
