Lambda support is a very active topic under discussion in the committee's
Evolution Working Group.

My sense is that a lot of committee members would like lambda support, but
that work hasn't progressed far enough yet to be able to say for certain
whether or not lambda support will make it into C++0x. Remember, too, that
it is going to be very hard or impossible to push through a core language
change unless compiler implementors are comfortable with it and there is at
least one existing compiler implementation.
