This patch adds just one line (the one with the + before it), so the easisest way is: copy IEEEtran.layout to your local LyX directory and insert the line with a simple text editor. the numbers in the @@ @@ enclosed line give you the line-number of the change, the remaining lines are context. (There should be a DOS version of Gnu diff/patch that could be used with the run_program prompt if you ever happen to apply larger patches...)
