Coming?
I don't think it is, nor I have heard it could be coming. The current one will be getting a big discount in 5D2 kits. The 17-85 has a big discount in kits and it has yet to be replaced so I wouldn't read into that.

Please Canon, instead of a 24-105 mark II which sounds strange ([CR0] ?), just develop a REAL good EF-S 17-85 f4 IS … a sort of 17-85 mark II indeed …
I guess the market is ready for such a lens …
The fact that there has never been a mark II of an IS lens does not add any credibility to this rumor CR0.5
More like 24-140mm or 24-150mm f/4, 5 IS stop is more like it especially the price they charge. Start making good lenses that aren’t too expensive canon.
Canon might think about serving its professional base by giving us a 24-70 IS. I often opt for my 40D (now 50D) in low light weddings because of the 17-55 2.8 IS lens. I would like the equivalent on a 5DMKII.
Maybe what’s really coming is a new 24-105 L 2.8 !!!!!!
