maybe this is because I use wx2.7.0 and wxdev could have replaced 
WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_24 with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_26 (but I'm not sure).

well, in this case you won't benefit much from bakefile-upgrading :)

yes, it would use some tags and stuff backward incompatible (but 
bakefiles would be easier to read & maintain & have some bugs fixed!).

the wxpresets does not come with bakefile. They are installed by 
wxWidgets when you call "make install" but if you don't install wx, then 
you have to manually cp them into /usr/local/bakefile/presets ;)

well, my archive doesn't contain the win32 installer (it would not be 
easy to pack bakefile for me for win32 as it requires a python 
interpreter embedded...). But you can just install bakefile 0.1.9 and 
then untar my archive on your "C:\programs" folder overwriting all old 
files. That should do the trick ;)

added; just waiting for committing it as I did also bakefiles changes 
and I'm testing wxLua on win32 and linux.

ok, I'll do the commits together with build changes.
