I can give you what I have for wxWidgets 2.8 support (I would merge
latest patches and ensure it compiles, but have too many work
commitments to do any more), if people feel it's essential and/or
useful. There are some rough edges, but it works OK(*) on Windows at
least.

A thing to bear in mind is that wxWidgets 2.8 support definitively
breaks support for the 2.4 line. This may be a deal-breaker for those
who like to work in ghci.

(*) OK == about as well as wxWidgets 2.6.2

I actually more or less have wxc separation, in a makefile (I have a
single makefile for Microsoft and GNU compilers). It's virtually
finished, but not tested on all platforms. Again, happy to provide,
but this one isn't for the faint-hearted.

Let me know if you'd like the 2.8 support - it is in a slightly rough
form, but I've only managed to spend a couple of hours on it in the
last 3 months, so may be better to 'get it out there'.
