Thanks Pietro, I had a look.

The problem for my box is not the version of wxwidgets. I have both 
ver. 2.8 and 3.0 and can easily switch between them when compiling a 
packages (Gentoo/Funtoo's eselect tool). Removing numpy 1.9.x and 
installing 1.8.SomeThing, results in an error-free compilation.

If I can translate this correctly, anything that uses "oldnumeric", 
will be a problem. NumPy 1.9 dropped support for it. In this case, 
g.gui.iclass.py uses something that uses (something that uses?) 
oldnumeric. This will stop working at some point.
