Yes, IDL 5.2 uses the O32 ABI. IRIX does not allow mixing of O32 and N32
ABIs, so all your external code *must* be compiled/linked with -o32.
(This has been causing us problems since the latest compilers will not
generate o32 code.)

You could try installing IDL 5.2.1, I received a message yesterday that
says
this version uses the N32 ABI. I have only just downloaded the package
and
haven't yet had time to install it so I can't comment on whether it
works.
You can download it from the RSI ftp server; follow the links from the
RSI
Web site.
