So, I would add it  after __main__ in:

svn status gui/wxpython/
M       gui/wxpython/gui_modules/location_wizard.py
M       gui/wxpython/gui_modules/mcalc_builder.py
M       gui/wxpython/gui_modules/render.py

? This would also activate preferences.py?
I am not on my development machine, so I cannot test.
