 It would be nice if this could be generalised to functions, rather than just
operator overloads. Then we could define member functions for specific template
instantiations without having to specialise the whole template, or clog the
body with static ifs.

The problem being that I can figure otu quite *what* C++ will do in a
specialisation. Sometimes the specialisation will correctly inherit all the
original members and sometimes not, sometimes I can replace members and
sometimes not, so most of the time I must completely re-write the entire
template for each specialisation (as stdc++ does in most cases).

Ender,

Please use a newsreader to read and reply to topics on these newsgroups. 
There is a bug in the web interface that messes up threading, and it makes 
all your topics very hard to follow.

(I also use the web interface)

I don't *see* anything wrong with the threading, but I may not know what to
look for.

Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.  Ender's reply to Tristam (this 
reply) ended up not as a reply to Tristam but as a reply to the OP.  Your 
reply, though, showed up in the right place.
