Frozen Idle pulley!

I hope everyone's Saab's are enjoying the winter.
I was on my way to school this morning in my 86 SPG when I was bombarded with a screeching noise and burning rubber smell. after class I got a chance to check it out and my idler pulley for the A/C compressor had seized up. at the time I didnt see anything wrong with just cutting off the belt. after a minute of snipping i pulled out a nasty looking shredded belt (only a couple years old).
Anyway, It just dawned on me that maybe leaving the belt off might be detrimental to my working A/C compressor. (of course i wont be using my A/C this winter, but could it to seize up from not being used for a few months until i have a chance to replace the idler pulley?
Thats it. Keep your cars well lubricated when its cold!
