I just upgraded an Alpha Windows NT workstation to run
version 5.2 of IDL.

The old versions of IDL treated 'ffff'x as a positive number.
In version 5.2 for the Alpha it is negative and in 5.2.1 for
Intel it is positive again.

print, 11 gt 'ffff'x

A bit confusing... I wonder what other implications this may
have on peoples software.
