	Innotek gcc 3.2.2		DW	This compilers uses an object format incompatible with current X11 libraries, so forget about wxGTK/wxMotif/wxX11. CVS now supports building wxOS2, but linking does not yet work OOTB.
	Open Watcom 1.0/1.1			Again, object format is incompatible with X11 libs, so forget about wxGTK/wxMotif/wxX11. We would need somebody having enough time to dig into the build system and find out how to adapt OpenWatcom's makefiles (or rather bakefiles) for Windows to OS/2.
