That's a first (no Intel Mac here). Do you happen to have more than
one IDL 6.3 version installed? My guess is that from the terminal you
are running one version, and from IDLWAVE another, likely do to
differences in the environment (e.g. search path) between them.

Before 6.3b, IDL wasn't Intel native. Try running Emacs from the
command line. If you do have more than one IDL version, try
print,!VERSION in both to see if they are the same (modulo arch). If
that's not it, we'll have to dig deeper.
