Maybe I should start to work on it now, but *not* for 1.30.0. This would 
give us enough time to have it in the mainline CVS to avoid 
time-pressure. As I don't have much time these days anyway, I think I'll 
try to create a fix for is_function in the next weeks. I'll not hurry as 
the problem is neither new nor severe. And if it works (and with some 
kind help ;) maybe we can fix it for 1.31.0... :)

Regards, Daniel
