Sorry John, thats not correct. It is possible (and i do it this way with 
other lua libs + lua runtime) to compile a static lib.
The only exported function needs to be luaopen_<modname>. So it would be 
great if i could build a single wx.a exporting luapoen_wx.

I tried to write my own makefile but until now it was too time consuming 
to figure out the dependecies. So if you could tell me the dependencies 
needed for wx.dll, i probably could write the needed makefile by myself.

TIA.
Ulrich.
