It's definitely sparse in non-Workbench stuff. (Of course, IDL 6.4
came out at the end of May this year.) Not sure about bug fixes, but
for new routines, from the "What's New":
The following new functions and procedures were added to IDL in this
release.
GET_LOGIN_INFO
Returns the name of the computer running the IDL process, as well as
the user's login name.
MAKE_RT
Creates a stand-alone IDL runtime distribution for one or more
platforms.
ROUTINE_FILEPATH
Returns the full path to a currently-compiled procedure or function
(or a list of procedures and functions).
