I will review buildext.py and see if I can add a check for the presence 
of `wxPython.h'.  For now, you should probably set BUILD_WXAGG to False 
by default.

Maybe I should get this Kevin guy to help  ;-)

I'm working with Ron Lee to get that fixed.  It looks like it may be an 
upstream issue, in that the wxPython distutils script doesn't even try 
to install the headers.  It probably won't be a hard fix, once I've 
made sure I understand the problem.
