John,
  This regression in Function is coming from your recently change to 
is_class.hpp. Would you mind taking a look?

boost::function hasn't changed in the last few weeks, but some of the 
libraries it depends on have changed.

FYI, updated documentation for Boost.Function is here:
  http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~gregod/boost/doc/html/function.html

Also, it's on the RC_1_30_0 branch in CVS (that will be 1.30.0; mainline CVS 
is for 1.31.0 and later).

Looks like a type_traits problem. I suspect this patch:

Index: is_class.hpp
===================================================================
RCS file: /cvsroot/boost/boost/boost/type_traits/is_class.hpp,v
retrieving revision 1.5
retrieving revision 1.6
diff -r1.5 -r1.6

The implementation of lexical_cast w.r.t. strings is in a state of flux. I'm 
too far out of the loop to be helpful on this one.
