Either the function has to be static or you have to use [url="http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Modular_Extensions_-_HMVC"]Modular Extensions HMVC[/url] or [url="http://code.google.com/p/incendiary/downloads/detail?name=wick-0.80.zip"]Wick[/url], what are you planning to do with it?

My guess is that "the function" should be in a library/model instead of a controller...

You can also make it a static method, and then include the controller file with a normal require and then call Controllername::method().

The short is that there really isn't an easy way without either passing the first controller to the second as some type of parameter, using a static method, or making some form of Borg/Singleton structure. Depending on context, the Singleton does seem to be a rather popular feature of the CodeIgniter base anyway...
