Thanks Markus and William,

I think that 2 different things are happening.

1. Something is now causing wxpython NOT to compile automatically--perhaps in 
the wxpython makefile, perhaps something else.

2. Glynn is changing /lib/python and THAT is why this won't compile in GRASS 7. 
For this one, do I need just need to build ctypesgen?

Michael
