machine dependant sort & other IDL mysteries [message #33958]

Just got done debugging a case of the machine dependant sort method
(many thanks to pvwave) when the values being sorted are identical.
(XP vs. 2000, fyi)

Since IDL is marketed as machine independent, I would have expected a
note in the reference that SORT may not produce same results in some
cases. Then I would have expected a /FIFO or something flag which,
when used, would guarantee cross machine congruence.

Since neither of those things was provided, I am now suspicious of
other methods.

Does anyone have any advice that would ease my worries?
