I'm probably misunderstanding, but that is reproducible on all Emacs versions
going back at least to Emacs 20.  And it looks like correct behavior, to me.

What am I missing?  Just what is the problem with the behavior you report?  And
are you sure it is not reproducible on the Emacs 24 branch?  (I don't have the
branch, but it is reproducible in Emacs 24.2.)

Symbol `foo' does have a function-cell definition: the symbol `bar'.  That
symbol `bar' has no function definition is immaterial to whether `foo' is
`fboundp'.  Perhaps you are looking for `functionp' instead of `fboundp'?
