    The code below is unreadable because it (unfortunately unavoidably)
    contains a lot of macro magic but all it does is to define wxLogXXX() such
    that you can call them as vararg functions to log a message at the
    corresponding level.

    More precisely, it defines:

        - wxLog{FatalError,Error,Warning,Message,Verbose,Debug}() functions
        taking the format string and additional vararg arguments if needed.
        - wxLogGeneric(wxLogLevel level, const wxString& format, ...) which
        takes the log level explicitly.
        - wxLogSysError(const wxString& format, ...) and wxLogSysError(long
        err, const wxString& format, ...) which log a wxLOG_Error severity
        message with the error message corresponding to the system error code
        err or the last error.
        - wxLogStatus(const wxString& format, ...) which logs the message into
        the status bar of the main application window and its overload
        wxLogStatus(wxFrame *frame, const wxString& format, ...) which logs it
        into the status bar of the specified frame.
        - wxLogTrace(Mask mask, const wxString& format, ...) which only logs
        the message is the specified mask is enabled. This comes in two kinds:
        Mask can be a wxString or a long. Both are deprecated.

    In addition, wxVLogXXX() versions of all the functions above are also
    defined. They take a va_list argument instead of "...".
