Thanks. Hmm. I was particularly careful to see that I had copied the five
newly built wxWidgets dlls to the folder containing the Audacity executable.
Maybe it's some kind of caching problem/picking up the old dll's somehow?
I'll have to reboot/maybe do a fresh Audacity checkout and let you know.   

In fact I wonder, where we added the step in compile.txt about copying over
the five Widgets dll's, if we are duplicating it, and perhaps confusing
things because of that? We have it at MSVC++ STEP 2: point 4: 

"4. Copy the DLL's from "C:\wxWidgets-2.8.9\lib\vc_dll"
   to the corresponding build directory, so the
   Audacity executable can access them" 

which seems it might refer to the Widgets build directory (we don't mean
that do we?), and then again correctly I think at MSVC++ STEP 5:

"You'll need to provide each Audacity executable access to the wxWidgets
DLLs that you built in "MSVC++ STEP 2:  Build wxWidgets" above.
You can put them in your Windows PATH, or simply put them in the same
directory as the executable..."

And do we need a note that if you are building for distribution to others
you need to include msvcr80.dll and msvcp80.dll in case the users do not
have those?
