I have one remaining problem with wxPython 2.5.1.5, but it's not down to 
PythonCard and I don't think 0.7.3.1 needs to be held up, but see what you 
think:

Using transparent PNG images on wx.wxBitmapButton controls seems to be broken 
compared to 2.4.2.4, specifically, the transparency part no longer works. 
What you end up with is your graphic on a black background overlaid on top of 
the button. The fault is present with both the GTK and GTK2 ports of wxPython 
on Linux. The problem is reproducible by amending the image file used in 
'demo/BitmapButton.py' from the wxPython 2.5 demo distributon to use any 
transparent PNG you happen to have on your machine.

I'll check the wxPython mailing lists and see if anyone else has reported 
this.
