The wx-config symlink should point to the most recent (that is the last
'make install'ed) version of wxWindows on the box. If a user has more
than one wxWindows installation, and they want to use a version which is
*not* symlinked (I can think of all kinds of problems with this), then
we can provide a --with-wx-version= option so they can explicity specify
the version they want to use (2.5-2ud, 2.4-ud, 2.4-d, etc.).

I think I can fix the scripts so that they can be used with the old
versions of autoconf and automake. I will need you to test them to make
sure they work, but this shouldn't be a problem.

I've looked at this patch and I'm pretty sure it breaks regular pgsql
includes on other systems, but I will create a patch that does work.

No, the Mac port is in pretty bad shape, and I don't know how much of it
can be blamed on wxWindows (my wxWindows apps work fine on Mac). Your
donated Mac is much too slow for me to use (slow from a network
perspective that is), and using my laptop for development is somewhat
tedious, though it should work for the time being. I am trying to get a
Mac machine to put on my network here, which should speed up my Mac
debugging.
