The problem is that this line is comparing a list (an object, created
on this line, which contains the single value 0) with 125. It is just
the confusion between using the array called list, and the function
list().

Maybe I am missing something, but I do not see a bug, I see the old
function/array problem, which manifested because IDL 8 happened to
have a new builtin function with the same name as the array that was
being used.
