From what I gather (I don't have the blu ray yet), the snake reflection has indeed been removed.
Altough I will say that falls under "reasonable" in my book. (it'd be silly if they had to make two releases and people would bitch if they left something like that in, considering it can seriously pull you out of the moment)
edit: that is from again what I gather the only cgi change though. If you don't count color timing.
From what I recall of that interview Spielberg mostly said he wouldn't be making changes in the context of what he did with ET and such. People seemed to have taken it very literally.
