There is a version "call for comments" or something like that from
1997 that is freely available.
Also note that the standard was revised in 2003, and that the GCC C+
+98 mode actually tries to comply with that version and not the 1998
one. The differences between those are freely available, too.
However, I don't remember the URLs of those do***ents.
You can also look at the numerous drafts that are being written for
the next C++ standard, C++0x. Those are freely available at open-
std.org.
