I guess that eventually they will have to switch to n32, I don't suppose
SGI will
provide o32 forever!

I asked this very question today and was told that the next release
(5.3) will be
in o32 only. n32 or 64 would be classed as a different operating system
requiring
an effective port and complete verification.

This is really beginning to bite us here as people convert to n32 and
have to keep
two copies of libraries to be able to link to their n32 programs and the
o32 IDL.

The FORTRAN90 compiler won't produce o32 code...
