An explicit procedure is presented so that from each solution to the coupled Einstein Maxwell equations for gravitational and source-free electromagnetic fields, a set of solutions to the coupled Einstein-Yang-Mills equations for gravitational and source-free unquantized massless gauge fields can be constructed for any gauge group that has an invariant metric. These solutions show that the Rainich-Misner-Wheeler (1957) 'already unified field theory' cannot be extended to massless gauge fields. As an example of the procedure, a solution is constructed which describes the exterior of a rotating black hole that has gauge charges such as isospin and hypercharge. A curved-space generalization of the Wu-Yang (1969) solution is shown to be a special case, except for being written in a different gauge. Such black-hole solutions with massles gauge fields raise doubts about Wheeler's (1971) 'black holes have no hair' conjecture.
