+
+   **NOTE**: Due to a recent change there is currently a dependency
+   problem in the multilib builds of wxWidgets on OSX, so I have
+   switched to using a monolithic build.  That means that all of the
+   core wxWidgets code is placed in in one shared library instead of
+   several.  wxPython can be used with either mode, so use whatever
+   suits you on Linux and etc. but use monolithic on OSX.  To switch

+
+   By default GTK 2.x will be used for the build.  If you would rather
