It looks to me like this is a glitch in IDL's HELP,../OUTPUT= implementation;
happens when there is no real output.
e.g., Start an IDL session (no open files) and type: HELP,/FILES,OUTPUT=LST
You'll get LST equal to '' (scalar!) (which is reasonable, I suppose) and
you'll get that peculiar "temporary variables..." message.
