Orson, Thanks for looking into this. Linux users will appreciate your efforts.
As far as I can tell, it didn't break anything on windows. The mirrored printing is still broken on windows with wx 3.0.2 but that has nothing to do with your changes. I have to keep a build of 3.0.1 to do mirrored printing so I can etch prototype boards. I'll test this on linux when I get a chance.

You can be absolutely sure that changes in either wxWidgets or GTK+ will break printing in the future. Nobody ever said this was going to be easy. I wouldn't be too quick to blame the wxWidgets developers. I'm guessing the GTK+ developers are equally to blame.
