strange: I still get errors when trying to access it - maybe only

configure already tests for wxSTC... didn't you get a message 'wxSTC 
could not be found etc etc' ?

It does not disable it automatically if not found for choice: wxSTC is 
required for both wxLuaApp and wxLuaEdit applications... if you don't 
have wxSTC then you miss two nice apps ;)

this is sure a big problem - thanks for reporting it.
Fixed in CVS (wxluasetup.h was erroneously installed into 
$PREFIX/src/wxbind/setup instead of $PREFIX/include/wxbind/setup)

this was not to pollute the compiler line with a lot of include paths 
(we would need one for each subfolder in modules\ ...).

Thinking deeper about it you're probably right: a successfull 
compilation is the most important thing to make sure the user tries the 
program. So, I've changed it from an error to a big warning. Without 
wxSTC now compilations will proceed but wxLuaApp and wxLuaEdit apps will 
be disabled.

reading SF status page I see that anonymous-developer CVS synch is still 
not working... that's a real pity :(
Hopefully it will be reenabled before next release.

This is hopefully what the "freeze" type program will do. It has to be
written of course, but it'll be simple like yours.

You're using a RPM of wxWidgets or something else?

Thanks.

Agreed, this may not be "standard", but all you have to include is the
modules dir to get everything.

The problem is from the wxluasetup.h having
#define wxLUA_USE_wxLuaDebugServer 1
which makes the wxlbind lib #include "wxluasocket/include/wxldserv.h"

This is set by default so that the wxlua app program works. We had a
discussion a while back about how to most simply allow multiple
wxluasetup.h files to generate different wxbind libs for different
programs, but found that "tricks" that would work for one compiler
would fail for others.

It's being sent as an wxEVT_LUA_CONSOLE (see wxlstate.h) event from
the function wxLua_lua_printFunction that's pushed on the lua_State,
see
bool wxLuaState::Create(wxEvtHandler *handler, wxWindowID id)

I think you can just call
wxLuaState::RegisterFunction(NULL, wxT("print"));
to get back the original print function.

or pushing the original function back will work
lbaselib.c:static int luaB_print (lua_State *L)
