I think you're right there. I was actaully hunting through
inheritance.cpp when the problem 'disappeared'.  It would make sense if
the implementation of type_info had changed between 4.4 and 4.5.

As for making an automated test - I can create an exe that exhibits the
problem, but only by compiling the luabind library with 4.4 and the
program itself with 4.5.  I could also 'fix' the bug by removing classes
after the one in question from the binding - which led me to the cast
graph.

This would have ramifications for making distribution packages (rpm,
deb, etc) for Luabind too I guess.
