Tried to solve numerically:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.math/browse_frm/thread/248f76d024c1ac57/0bba983777a07bc9#0bba983777a07bc9

thus:

EQ= { f'[x] == f[f[x]], f[0]== 1} ;  NDSolve[EQ,f,{x,0,2}];

But gives an error.  NDSolve::ndnum:  Differential equation does not
evaluate to a number at x = 0.

Also does not work even with other f[0] values. Any way to do that?
