Build problems, part II

This is a follow-up from a recent email where I described problems in
the
rakefile system.

I got the library to build, but it has problems with unresolved symbols.
Here is the list of symbols that are unresolved from wx:

I built wxGTK 2.8.7 from source using the recommended flags from the
installation instructions. Any ideas on what’s going on here? The gtk
libraries were statically linked into the library, and I nm’ed them and
indeed these symbols are not defined in them, but slight variations are.
For example, there is the missing symbol:

Z12wxLogMessagePKcz

and I have:

nm libwx*.a | grep wxLogMessage
000002ac T _Z12wxLogMessagePKwz

(notice ‘wz’ not ‘cz’ on the end)

Is this a version mismatch with wxGtk possibly, with small changes to
the
interface? Do I need to go to specifically 2.8.6, not 2.8.7?
