Looks good. RC builds with MSVC 8.0 on Windows 7 and GCC 4.5.3 on Cygwin.

Tests, examples, and documentation of ScopeExit, LocalFunction,
Funcitonal/OverloadedFunction, and Utility/IdentityType build as expected on
MSVC 8.0 on Windows 7, GCC 4.5.3 on Cygwin, and GCC4.5.3 with -std=c++0x on
Cygwin.

I noticed a typo in the release notes:
http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_50_0.html
"Use variadic macros to specify captures variables as commas-separated lists
(but kept preprocessor sequence syntax for backward compatibility)."
Should read:
"Use variadic macros to specify captures as commas-separated lists (but kept
preprocessor sequence syntax for backward compatibility)."
Note no "variables" after "captures". Can this be corrected?
Also all library links in the release notes point to 1_49_0 instead of
1_50_0, is this exacted for now?

Where/when can I find the documentation (HTML and PDF) to make sure it is
correctly generated from the QuickBook files?

Thanks.
