not sure what happens in the installer, but if not that should happen
automatically the first time you run it, assuming you have write
permissions in the install directory.

fwiw using the rc5 native wingrass installer I seem to have only .py
files in $GISBASE/etc/wxpython/, but do see .pyc in $GISBASE/etc/wxpython/gui_modules and $GISBASE/python.

(and as you might expect wxgui.py is slow to start)
