Sorry to reply to my own post, but I found a bug.
My code allows you to issue an IDL command like this:

IDL> a = 42 ; comment & b = 43
And this is technically outside the scope of IDL, as *everything*
after a ; is supposed to be ignored as a comment. So, below is the
revised (and much shorter) idl_argv.pl script:

#! /usr/bin/perl
open( IDL_FILE, ">idl.$$.pro" );
print IDL_FILE "$ARGV[0]\n";
close( IDL_FILE );
system( "idl idl.$$.pro" );
system( "/bin/rm idl.$$.pro" );
exit(0);
