The latest version from CVS (I don't know if Andreas included your
latest update yet) seems to work, and includes --static and
--static-libgcc. How easy is it to only put those in if --static is
specified to configure? I guess it would also require the -static to be
taken out of the wx_config command line.

Yeah, I tried that first but it didn't like it. Must have been a typo or
something.
