I asked PV-Wave tech support about this (after moving companies and
changing from IDL to PV-Wave). They said they don't have it and have
no intention of implementing it. I used to use it all the time
to implement a poor man's stack of data sets (using TEMPORARY allowed
stack pushes and pops without actually copying any data), so I was
rather annoyed when it was not available.
