Thank you guys. The f77_unformatted fixed the problem. The IDL
documentation however says this keyword is UNIX specific (see below),
and I am running on a windows XP. So the documentation does not seem
quite accurate about this...?

F77_UNFORMATTED
Unformatted variable-length record files produced by UNIX FORTRAN
programs contain extra information along with the data in order to
allow the data to be properly recovered. This method is necessary
because FORTRAN input/output is based on record-oriented files, while
UNIX files are simple byte streams that do not impose any record
structure. Set the F77_UNFORMATTED keyword to read and write this
extra information in the same manner as f77(1), so that data to be
processed by both IDL and FORTRAN. See UNIX-Specific Information for
further details.
