Does anyone know what IDL did between IDL3 and IDL4 as far as
the numerical recipes subroutines go? I've been testing a fitting
program that uses the LUDCMP and LUBKSB routines form _Numerical
Recipes_, and I've been using IDL's canned routines. The canned
routines got name changes during the switch from IDL3 to IDL4,
from "nr_ludcmp" and "nr_lubksb" to "ludc" and "lusol". That's
not all though--somehow the code got changed around so that I
get different results depending on which version of IDL I use
even if the input is exactly the same!

I don't think IDL provides the source for these routines in their
libraries; they leave them as executables. So does anyone know
what IDL did between versions, or should I just forget about this
and rewrite everything from scratch (which would be really annoying)?
