This makes me think. I keep hearing how CALL_EXTERNAL doesn't work on DEC
ULTRIX systems, because ULTRIX doesn't support shareable object libraries. Is
ULTRIX the only UNIX system that IDL runs on that doesn't support
CALL_EXTERNAL?

Does anybody know if CALL_EXTERNAL will work under DEC's OSF/1 when that comes
out?
