IDL 8.0 was working fine before I updated my machine to Mac OSX 10.7.3
from 10.7.2. Now, when I try to open IDL, I get a full crash report
before workbench opens. I can open ENVI+IDL, but IDL is open only in
an X11 pane. My guess is there is a problem with the Workbench. Has
anyone seen this problem before?
Warning to other Mac users! Don't use software update just yet!

I received this reply on the Exelis forum. This solved my issue, but
to clarify, my issue was just with the workbench crashing. Some folks
are having every application crash on open (yikes)!

Could you please follow the procedure below and see if that helps with
your problem:
1) If you are running any instances of IDL, please shut them down.
2) Open a terminal window and navigate to the /bin/bin.darwin.x86_64
directory. For example, if you are using IDL 8.1 installed in the
Applications directory, type the following command:
cd /Applications/itt/idl/idl81/bin/bin.darwin.x86_64
3) Rename the following three files: libcurl.4.0.1.dylib, libcurl.
4.dylib and libcurl.dylib. For example,
mv libcurl.4.0.1.dylib libcurl.4.0.1.dylib.bak
mv libcurl.4.dylib libcurl.4.dylib.bak
mv libcurl.dylib libcurl.dylib.bak
If your login does not have adequate permissions to make these
changes,
you may need to issue the commands with "sudo" privileges. For
example:
sudo mv ./libcurl.4.0.1.dylib libcurl.4.0.1.dylib.bak
sudo mv ./libcurl.4.dylib libcurl.4.dylib.bak
sudo mv ./libcurl.dylib libcurl.dylib.bak
4) Restart IDL. If it still fails to launch, try restarting your
system.
