Correct.

If you PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH are set correctly, you should need to
use --with-wx-prefix.

This is not typical.

That's not my current guess.  I believe Kevin's error was due to not
finding release versions of the wxWidgets library.

I don't think this will work.  I think you need to install the release
version of wxWidgets.

Don, what was your PATH when you built tex2rtf?  If our version of wx
(/usr/local/wx289/bin) is first in your path, you will use the proper
version of wx-config.  Your ldd test seems to indicate this was not
the case.
