The first MPL courses at Lufthansa have just started at the beginning of 2008. They are not on the line yet and won't be for about a year and a half.
But ATPL graduates of Lufthansa Flight Training come out with about 300 hours, so they are still very low time, but from what I have been told, they are absolutely safe to fly an airliner - especially as IOE is much longer and more intense than in the US. There is an MCC though (Multi Crew Concept), this is just an add-on for the ATPL though (I think it's required for flying an airliner).
