I am old-fashioned enough to still often use the the -t parameter
to .run (compile with a listing)

IDL> .run -t moment

which lets me see that yes, the version of moment.pro that my IDL
session is using does allow the dimension keyword

118 FUNCTION Moment, X, DIMENSION=dimensionIn, $
119 Double = Double, MEAN=mean, Mdev = Mdev, Sdev = Sdev, $
120 SKEWNESS=skew, KURTOSIS=kurt, VARIANCE=var, $
121 Maxmoment = MaxmomentIn, NaN = nan

IDL> print,file_which('moment.pro')
/Applications/itt/idl/idl80/lib/moment.pro
IDL> print,!version
{ x86_64 darwin unix Mac OS X 8.0.1 Oct 5 2010 64 64}
