Confirmed. The error message is not much worse than the one given previously

g/x> /home/bangerth/bin/gcc-3.3.2/bin/c++ -c x.cc
x.cc: In function `int fn(C<float>)':
x.cc:7: error: no matching function for call to `C<float>::operator t(C<float>&)'

g/x> /home/bangerth/bin/gcc-3.4-pre/bin/c++ -c x.cc
x.cc: In function `int fn(C<float>)':
x.cc:7: error: no matching function for call to `C<float>::operator 1(C<float>&)'

So this should maybe not count as a regression. It's a bad message
in any case, worth fixing.

PS: How did you get to write such code? Martin van Loewis once posted
a PR in which he showed that such function signatures are sometimes
even accepted by gcc, erroneously of course (this is PR 8856)...
