 With a "'wxversion' referenced before assignment" error?

 There has been an attempt at fixing that, but I'm still not sure that it's
 correct. I think that !CheckForWx() should look like:
 {{{
 try:
     import wxversion
     try:
         wxversion.select(...)
         import wx
         # the rest of CheckForWx() goes here
         ....
     except wxversion.VersionError, e:
         ...
 except ImportError, e:
     ...
 }}}

 Any references to wxversion should only appear in the same scope as the
 "import wxversion", not in any outer scope.

 For release candidates and any eventual release, I strongly suggest
 building `--without-wxwidgets`. It's not worth the risk of losing the
 whole wxGUI over those two modules.
