I seem to remember that there was a bug in HISTOGRAM that could
occasionally give such error messages.. Don't remember which IDL
version (nor in what version the problem was fixed).

Are you able to pin down a repeatable case that will trigger the
error? Does your routine call other routines that have
call_external/linkimage/dlm code?
