Comment:

 This should probably not be in the core when it's so easy to simply stick
 into a plugin or a theme or a page template or what have you.

 {{{
 <?php
 function get_latest_post_permalink() {
 $my_query = new WP_Query('showposts=1');
 if ($my_query->have_posts()) {
 $latest_post = $my_query->next_post();
 return get_permalink($latest_post->ID);
 } }
 ?>
 }}}
