At first I installed the 90.0.1 from the older site.  I had to modify 
wxdirect to do an "import Foreign.C.Types" to get rid of the arg type 
errors and change the pointer assignment in eljpen.cpp that others have 
mentioned.  It was working fine so I installed the 90.1 from Atze's repo 
into a sandbox as described in the wiki.  I thought I changed the path 
to use the 90.1 wxdirect but it's possible the older modified wxdirect 
was running.  I'll try to play around with it some tomorrow and make 
sure my modified wxdirect isn't being run.  But I definitely had to 
change all the CHECK_VERSIONs to 2,9,4 or they could be commented out as 
Blair suggested.

I think we need to decide what to do on conditional compiles. Either 1) 
modify wxdirect to handle them (way over my head), 2) no conditionals in 
the headers wxdirect processes which also means to leave out any new 
function not in a specific lower version, or 3) require a specific 
higher version.  It seems to me that #2 is probably the simplest and 
thus best way to go as that should work on more installs without 
requiring modifications unless it turns out that SetDeviceClippingRegion 
is actually required in 2.9.4 installs.
