  I grabbed your sample code posted in the wxPython list and ran it on 
my Mac. It doesn't exhibit the problem you are seeing on Linux, the 
count is always 1 here. Just FYI, so it looks like the fix needs to be 
made just in the Linux wx implementation although making the routines 
re-entrant safe wouldn't hurt anybody. ;-)
