@Joost: thanks for that important extra information about the location
of an improved version of FindwxWidgets.cmake.

@Phil: from the link above it turns out the situation is now virtually
identical to the FindFreeType.cmake case where the unreleased
CMake-3.0 has an improved version of the find module.  For both cases
(assuming both improved find modules work for you) I advise you to
commit the improved versions of these find modules in the PLplot
cmake/modules location so that all PLplot users can benefit from this
CMake-3.0 work regardless of their CMake version.
