right - DOS and NMAKE don't give you enough tools to do that.
And I also see another major problem: if you have multiple wx builds 
then you're going to have multiple build.cfg files in different 
subfolders of vc_lib; how can you choose one among them ?

There's no notion of "default build" on Windows... so autodetection of 
the build configuration is possible only on linux with autoconf format...

> wx-config.exe ( recently mentioned on the dev list )does it like that.
right... but it needs a shell / make tool which supports backtick 
expansion (aka command expansion), which is not the case for most of 
win32 MAKEs...
