It's now documented.

I've also checked in some changes to handle reference_wrapper logically:

The semantics for f == g (and g == f) are:
  1) If f is a Boost.Function object and g is a reference_wrapper<Functor>, 
the result is true when f stores a function object of type Functor and the 
address of the object in f is equivalent to g.get_pointer().
  2) If f is a Boost.Function object and g is EqualityComparable, the
result is true when f stores a function object of the type of 'g' and that
object is equal to 'g' (via g's operator==)
  3) If f is a Boost.Function object and g is the NULL pointer constant,
the result is true when f is empty
  4) Otherwise, the program is ill-formed

The semantics for f != g and g != f follow analagously.
