Sorry for being unclear - I meant it was diffed against GCC 3.4.0 
release. It would almost certainly apply to CVS head without 
incident. I diffed against 3.4.0 release because my library needs 
this patch to be useable and thus it's easiest for users.

Emm, it would be mixed between me and Brian (Brian did the hard 
stuff). I suppose Jason Merrill has copyright on about four lines :)

I would have thought it's small enough not to require a copyright 
assignment - however it's not a problem to do one if it's electronic. 
I wouldn't be able to afford a transatlantic fax call :(

I also want to run this past Dave Abrahams as he might see something 
me and Brian have not. I'll know this soon.

Cheers,
Niall
