We managed to get IDL to work by installing the compatability libraries. I
then modified the idl script (the one which runs the binary) at the end to
read:

app=$IDL_DIR/bin/bin.$OS$OSVER$ARCH/$APPLICATION

if [ -e /lib/ld-2.0.7.so ] ; then
exec $app $* $APP_ARGS
else
libdir=/usr/i386-glibc20-linux/lib

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${libdir}:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"
exec ${libdir}/ld-2.0.7.so $app $* $APP_ARGS
fi

This seems to work, although we haven't tried running programs with external
shared libraries.
