I think I was caught by this issue, hoping to compile a .sav in 8.4 for a client to run in 8.3. Some problems were
relieved by:

1. In my project's Build, replacing the standard RESOLVE_ALL with post-process command:
RESOLVE_ALL, skip=['list','hash','orderedhash']

2. Avoiding the use of myList = List(myArray, /EXTRACT)

But I'm seeing another problem I can't seem to avoid, where I'm adding an item to a list, and I get:
IDL_CONTAINER::ADD: Object reference type required in this context: INDEXITEM.
(INDEXITEM was my variable that I was Adding to the list)

I confirm that neither IDL 8.3 nor 8.4 actually require this of a List() object.

I tried adding 'idl_container' to the "skip" list in RESOLVE_ALL, to no avail.

Any suggestions of how to get around this?
