+    Also please note that you should ensure that WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_2
+    is defined to 1 if you wish to retain maximal compatibility with 2.2
+    series -- however you are also strongly encouraged to try to compile
+    your code without this define as it won't be default any longer in
+    2.6 release.
