It was a very small fix, but in a few different places. In order to
make it work you have to use the fully qualified namespace for both
the %class and the constructor.

The output will be nsa_nsb_MyClass which is reasonable enough, right?
It's too much trouble to try to make nested lua "namespaces" like
wx.nsa.nsb.MyClass.

%class %delete %noclassinfo %encapsulate nsa::nsb::MyClass
    nsa::nsb::MyClass()
    %rename nsa_nsb_MyClassFromInt nsa::nsb::MyClass(int x)
     %constructor nsa_nsb_MyClassFromInt(int x)

You use the %rename tag or %constructor tag for alternate
constructors, but you must replace the :: with _.

Thanks for the sample, it really helps and saves me a lot of time when
I people give me a nice little sample to work with.

The next snapshot will contain the fixed binding generator.
