Ohh!  Good to know.  I don't know that there's a good solution to this 
other than to be patient.

Is that an issue?  Should we rename it?

I can't find the code you're talking about.  In fact, I can't find ++ 
in any of the code in eventwin.cpp.  It rather odd to replace a 
post-increment with a +1 though, they have very different meanings.

On my box, wx/setup.h was placed in the dir indicated by a -I 
directive generated by wx-config.  In other words, all was good out 
of the box.

Getting it compiling at all under windows is likely going to involve a 
fair bit of work.  Feel free to ask questions or give indications of 
areas that are problematic.

BTW, if anyone else is thinking of working on the dialogs, don't 
worry... there are plenty to go around. :)
