Good for the start, so this is a separated issue. This is hopefully
reproducable using a wx sample.

That's because the event is registered on wxID_CANCEL, which is not the
same as XRCID("wxID_CANCEL") although it should be.

Please set a breakpoint at contrib/src/xrc/xmlres.cpp line 1218 or so.
This is XRCID_Lookup, which retrieves an id from a string. It's called
from c++ runtime initialization code, to set all that
EVT_xxx(XRCID("...") ) stuff. Apparently, there's some other source
calling this, because there's no occurrence of XRCID("wxID_CANCEL") in
pgadmin's sources.
This initializer code is called before some other code is executed,
which assigns those well-known id values to the id strings (this is done
in xmlres.cpp AddStdXRCID_Records). If this code is not called prior to
requesting an XRCID for a well-known id string, a new id is generated
(which we don't like for wxID***) and the assert mentioned will rise.

With that breakpoint set, you'll get >300 calls, which is too much to
trace. You can remove all EVT_*** in any ui/*.cpp between
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE and END_EVENT_TABLE; after that, there should be no
more call to to XRCID_Lookup before AddStdXRCID_Records(). Apparently on
Mac there *is* an illegal call, you'll catch it hopefully like this.

Obviously wxNotebook is f***ed up on mac. Could you please test this on
a wx sample?
