I originally made the patches by modifying gcc-2.3.3.
The patches, updated to apply to gcc-2.4.0, are now available from

	http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~fjh/comp.std.c++/gcc-2.4.0-opdot.patch

I think the 2.4.0 patches applied cleanly to 2.6.3, but I haven't tried
them with 2.7.2.  The patches include additions to the gcc documentation
which describe the exact semantics implemented.
