[Boa Constr] Boa 2.2 errors (was Re: [wxPython] wxGenButton error in Demo 2.3.2.1)

[Mike C. F. <mcf...@ge...>]

Not really a code sample, but here's how it occurs:

Open Boa 1.0a
Create a window (I was using wxTransientPopupWindow)
Add a list control
Click on the list control to select it.

I added a sourceforge bug to Boa about it before reading the Generic 
Button posting here.  If this is caused by the 2.2 type unification (it 
sounds like it is), it would make sense that this is affecting other 
parts of Boa, not because there's a problem in wxPython, but because 
they may be doing diamond-pattern inheritence (that's what changed, right?)

Here are the tracebacks:

Afraid I'm in the middle of something just now, or I would go spelunking 
through Boa's innards to figure out what's going on.  For now I'm just 
going back to hand-coding the project.

Enjoy,
Mike
