Yeah, it doesn't really look at wxpython at runtime, it's (GRASS_WX64BIT) 
hardwired from compilation.

GRASS_WXBUNDLED is (was? maybe it's been stripped out?) meant to tell the GUI 
code somewhere that wxpython is bundled, there was a problem where wxpython 
wouldn't work, maybe it's fixed now.  GRASS_WXBUNDLED is set in custom bundling 
scripts (not in source).
