+- wxDC classes hierarchy has changed, if you derived any classes from wxDC you

 - Return type of wxString::operator[] and wxString::iterator::operator* is no
   longer wxChar (i.e. char or wchar_t), but wxUniChar. This is not a problem
   in vast majority of cases because of conversion operators, but it can break
