Linux people switched to ELF-binary format long
time ago. IDL for Linux has been a.out-binary
format for a long time and my version still is a.out-based.

So, is the new IDL5.2 for Linux ELF-based or a.out-based?
Thanks.

What version of IDL is that? I think IDL
has been ELF format on linux for quite a while.
Anyway, 5.2 is ELF; also, it is linked against the
glibc library from GNU (libc6). From the IDL 5.2beta
binary:

$file idl
idl: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1,
dynamically linked, not stripped

$ldd idl
libidl.so.5.0 => ./libidl.so.5.0 (0x4000b000)
