That should be right. I have never used this function so I don't know what
triggers it. In any case I think you should just get the wxHtmlLinkEvent
and handle it there, I believe that this also applies for wx 2.8.x too.

No, this is just an internal wxLua flag for when the Lua code wants to call
the base class function, if you call obj:_OnLinkClicked() for example.
