In the Jan 1997 !News, David Stern is quoted:
...IDL 5.0 must be backward-compatible with earlier IDL programs.
We are taking extra steps during development to ensure
compatibility with IDL 4.0.1 applications.
Unfortunately, our initial testing shows some things that are not
compatible. The most glaring is a graphics application in which the map
comes out upside down in IDL 5.
