We've had this conversation before.
The answer to that latter issue (gdk_window_foreign_new not in gtk3)
is to configure with --disable-raise-console.  Or if you could comment
out or remove that section of code just for wxt since it obviously isn't
going to work anyhow.

As to OSX + wxwidgets not requiring gtk at all, I would be happy
to take a patch that sorted this out in the autoconf script.
I suppose it would test the output of 
   wx-config --query-toolkit

What does that return on OSX?
