Maybe something is getting inserted into the python path in some other way?  Start python in GRASS, then

import sys
sys.path

You should see a bunch of frameworks at the front of the list, then etc/python from GRASS, then the system stuff.  If there is another wx in the path before the GRASS etc/python, that will cause problems.


(Note, also try updating to GRASS 6.4rc6, though this might not help your problem.  I tried rc6 and had no problems importing wx with various python startup methods.  I don't have rc5 handy to try that.)
