Yes, indeed! I've been blocked in my high-level GUIs graphics work for a
few years, while waiting for a low-level (imperative) Haskell library to
show up that combines GUIs graphics, works cross-platform (including
native graphics on Mac), and supports incremental development. gtk2hs
almost got there recently, but not quite, and I've always preferred
wxHaskell's API.

Also, I imagine that while this brings us closer to wxHaskell in GHCi,
we would still need to solve the second start crash?

Well, I just had a look, and that issue seems to have gone away in my
darcsden branch!
I've added a comment to the tracker.

It certainly seems to, insomuch as the given test code no longer causes a
crash :)
By the way, you mentioned wx-config (I get the feeling you'd asked me a
direct question and I forgot to answer). Did you have a look at the
Haskell code in our repo which provides a wx-config replacement? The
replacement is very very stupid and needs generalising, but it might be
easier to bring it closer to the kind of completeness we need than to
maintain the C++ one.
Ah, yes, I suspected this would need some debate.
I was on the cusp of merging in your wx-config implementation, namely:
http://darcsden.com/kowey/wxhaskell/browse/wx-config/
But then I got a reply from the previous project leader wx-config-win:
http://code.google.com/p/wx-config-win/
He had hoped that one day wx-config-win might be merged in to wxWidgets,
but noted that it had fallen behind the project and had several known
issues:
http://code.google.com/p/wx-config-win/issues/list
Personally I feel that (for similar arguments to those for maintaining wxC
as a language-agnostic project) we should pursue wx-config-win. Thoughts?
