Aha, I did do something to fix this!
Here's my 'probably breaks other things but hasn't caused me a problem as of
yet' fix:
(I really need to start getting all my local patches reviewed and pushed to
code.haskell.org..)

[wxEventType is an extern type in wxWidgets 2.9.2

 Compare wxEventType in include/wx/event.h in wxWidgets 2.8.10 and 2.9.2,
 you will see that the latter contains the lines:
     extern WXDLLIMPEXP_BASE const wxEventType wxEVT_NULL;
     extern WXDLLIMPEXP_BASE const wxEventType wxEVT_FIRST;
 This was causing a "Conflicting exports" error as detailed here:
 http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=27810904
 Because wxc_glue.h previously exported these as ints.
] hunk ./wxcore/src/include/wxc_glue.h 18
-int expEVT_NULL();^M$
-int expEVT_FIRST();^M$
