I first submitted the patch in github around jul 30, 2015 and it went to a
discussion somewhere in the bowels of the wxwidgets,  where after several
back-and-forth about what the issue was, the wx guy decided it was
"worthwhile"
to consider a fix of somesort - or maybe he just wanted to leave that
impression so I would stop replying.  I also suggested it be included in
the MSYS2 repo mash-up but since it was no one else's problem, evidently
not worthy.
So providing me another example of the fuitility of propogating patches
into a well-worn package.
