The problem is that I'm using the DOF to blur the hair so it looks a lot
less like straw. That's why I put such a sharp cut off in the DOF.
I may just take another approach with the hair anyway, as it is a pain
to render (it's about a gadzillion polygons) and I'd like to be able to
show the detail of the bulding behind him a little bit more.
Right now I'm playing with using the translucent plastic shader (mixed
with the mapped phong shader) for the skin, pumping the translucency
value way up to 4 or 5 and turning shine down to 0. It sort of gives a
Fake Sub Surface Scattering look to it, but seems to effect only the
color channel without giving a true translucent/light penetrating depth
to it.
Here is a quick test render (minus hair)

Still not satisfied with the skin yet. I think this is a "little" better
than the last, but I'm still looking for a good way to show just a
slight touch or translucency without making everything sort of dull and
shiny.

Stan, everything is ok (Still needs work, but i think you know where
better
then we) but the DOF is way to much. It looks like a typicall macro DOF
to
me.
