#4 Fix for MSVC 6 template function bug

[Matt Beard]

MSVC incorrectly merges several templated functions in
0.6.0-Beta

This patch replaces the template functions with less
elegant non-templated version.

This patch applies only to version 0.6.0(2)-Release
(the version released as 0.6.0-Beta)

The version number moves to 0.6.0(3)-Patched

Apply the patch with option -p1
