There are two big changes between 2.3.1-11 and 2.3.1+git1a369e47-1 - one of them is indeed the switch to wx3.0, but the other is a switch to an upstream git snapshot of amule. I think it would be prudent to rebuild 2.3.1+git1a369e47-1 against wx2.8 and test if that has similar issues before blaming wx3.0 for these problems. While they could be related to wx3.0, I've not seen such issues in any other packages. Also, upstream's response to the forwarded ticket might be more useful if you could show it happens with wx2.8 too. I tried rebuilding 2.3.1+git1a369e47-1 with wx2.8 myself, but I couldn't trigger this behaviour from either the package in sid or my rebuilt version (I tried switching between tabs over and over as described above), so that's rather inconclusive. I wasn't connected to any networks though, so that's perhaps why it didn't manifest. I noticed wx upstream has applied a fix for the wxExecuteData issue (http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/16325) - I can apply that to the wxwidgets3.0 package if you'd prefer to try updating 2.3.1-11 to work with wx3.0.
