I can confirm this in R-devel, but it doesn't happen in R-patched.  In R-devel,
isS4 is returning a vector marked as LGLSXP, but containing the value 16, not
the usual 1 for TRUE.

  > .Internal(inspect(isS4(new("A"))))
@4bfbed8 10 LGLSXP g0c1 [] (len=1, tl=0) 16

I'm not going to have time to track this down and fix it.

The bit is set at src/include/Rinternals.h:278

   39103        jmc #define IS_S4_OBJECT(x) ((x)->sxpinfo.gp & S4_OBJECT_MASK)

but it's identical that has changed; it looks as though there are other similar
operations in that header and probably elsewhere.

In R-patched, it returned the value 1 for TRUE, so I'm not sure identical() has
changed.

R version 2.15.1 Patched (2012-09-24 r60798) has

> isS4
function (object)
.Call("R_isS4Object", object, PACKAGE = "base")

with objects.c:1531

SEXP R_isS4Object(SEXP object)
{
    /* wanted: return isS4(object) ? mkTrue() : mkFalse(); */
    return IS_S4_OBJECT(object) ? mkTrue() : mkFalse(); ;
}

where R-devel has

> isS4
function (object)  .Primitive("isS4")

with coerce.c:1843

    case 51:            /* isS4 */
        LOGICAL(ans)[0] = IS_S4_OBJECT(CAR(args));
        break;

made in r60395
