AFAIK IDK 6.4 seems to come with some debugging symbols so you may get
a meaningful backtrace. I don't have a mac, but the same method should
apply.

Try running IDL using gdb (gcc debugger)

Under bash
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/itt/idl64/bin/bin.linux.x86 gdb /usr/local/
itt/idl64/bin/bin.linux.x86/idl

Under csh
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/itt/idl64/bin/bin.linux.x86
gdb /usr/local/itt/idl64/bin/bin.linux.x86/idl

When IDL crashes and returns to gdb you can type "backtrace" to find
exactly where IDL is crashing.

In addition to the problems you mention (which I am also
experiencing)
the direct graphics TV command also leads to a bus error.
