problem first and then send a patch to the author.

First steps
-----------
- Download wxMGL-x.y.z.tgz, where x.y.z is the version number.
Download documentation in a preferred format, such as
- wxWindows-HTML.zip or wxWindows-PDF.zip.
+ wxWidgets-HTML.zip or wxWidgets-PDF.zip.
- Make a directory such as ~/wx and unarchive the files into this
directory.
- It is recommended that you install bison and flex; using yacc
and lex may require tweaking of the makefiles.

to get compiler flags that are needed to build your program. wx-config --cxxflags
will output necessary C++ compiler flags and wx-config --libs will list all
