Hey Jim, Chill dude! There are a lot more bugs (serious ones even) than
that in that release of wxWin. This was fixed upstream months ago, and
isn't so much the fault of wxWin as it was gratuitous changes to G* types
in gtk.
As I said earlier, nothing in potato depends on it, and in MNSHO (as someone
also working on wxWin upstream) it should simply be yanked from potato if
it won't build with the gtk packages there. I'll be uploading 2.2 packages
to woody as soon as it is ready for release which fixes this and *many*
more serious issues.
Your 'fix' is simplistic and wrong anyway, since it breaks the code for
gtk < 1.2.7
