Have you actually had any problems with IDL 5.5 on Solaris 7? I have only
run IDL on Solaris 7 for a couple of weeks but I have not seen any
problems. Reading their release notes:

*********
For UNIX, the supported versions indicate that IDL was either built
(the lowest version listed) or tested on that version. You can install
and run IDL on other versions that are binary compatible with those
listed.

it seems plausible that IDL 5.5 doesn't actually require an upgrade to
Solaris 8.
