Old-style, non-trait-based, operator overloading is still in the language.

@sanxiyn I can't explain why I closed that one, nor am I sure of the state of old-style operator overloading. Last I knew it still worked but recent changes may have removed it in passing.

Old overloading worked by the name of the method alone, so add was +. The telltale sign of old operator overloading is when an impl of Num is enough to overload the arithmetic operators (by virtue of its add, etc. methods). + is supposed to be implemented with the Add trait, not Num.
