I am building KiCad from source so the ABI will be determined by the gcc

There is this interesting patch:
https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-wxwidgets/wxWidgets-3.0.2-relax-abi-compatibility-gcc.patch
[...]
I guess I will try changing the ABI patch to 1011 and see what happens.
I think a better approach is to completely throw away that above
relax-abi-compatibility patch. The wxwidgets developers obviously don't think
relaxing their ABI compatibility requirements is a good idea so why
should MSYS2 builders of the wxwidgets library relax that caution
which is probably well-founded?
Instead for a reliable workaround for the fundamental issue use the
-fabi-version=n g++ option on builds of your own software where n is
1000 less than the ABI number for the wxwidgets library build that is
reported in the popup error message.
But as I alluded to in my other post the fundamental issue is MSYS2 is
currently not delivering a platform that is guaranteed to have a
self-consistent ABI no matter what time a user updates his system.
That problem is soluble (virtually all other rolling releases of free
software based on the gcc compiler suite are able to deliver on that
self-consistent ABI guarantee) so I assume it only a matter of time
(but probably a lot of work and time unless the MSYS2 developers are
willing to adapt a solution from another rolling-release distro)
before MSYS2 can provide that guarantee as well.
