A known problem with wxWidgets on Mac and Linux - 
see the download site.

That is why I rewrote the display used for media (wallpaper,
ringtones etc).  So far I have only had time to change the
wallpaper over to the new widgets which do work everywhere
correctly.

My only guess as to what it may be caused by print statements,
especially ones that are not in the main thread.  You can
test this theory by commenting out all print statements
and seeing if that fixes it (a small sed script will do the trick).
Eventually all the print statements will be removed anyway.
