I've read that article and searched the archives. I'm using IDL 5.6 on
a Intel MacBook. X11 programs work fine, but IDL is segfaulting
nonetheless.

If DISPLAY is :0.0 then xeyes works and IDL segfaults

If DISPLAY is 0:0 then IDL will run but provides error messages when
trying to access the display, like so:

_X11TransSocketINETConnect() can't get address for 0:6000: No address
associated with nodename
% Unable to connect to X Windows display: 0:0


Any advice?

This just started yesterday when I upgraded to 10.4.8.

-k.
