sorry for not including these DLLs in the setup package. I've put a note 
in the Readme for creating the wxLua binary distribution so that next 
time they will be there.

right, that DLL comes with MSVC7.1, MSVC8 (aka visual studio 2005) and 
with many other 3rd party programs (i.e. programs that you download from 
web and that were built with MSVC 7.1)...

well, after all it's only 2 additional DLLs. I currently am on linux so 
I don't know how much they are in size but it should be acceptable to 
just include them in the binary package.

unfortunately this is true. And there's another BIG problem for me with 
mingw: compile & link times. They are thousands times the time required 
to do the same by MSVC (which also provides a very good debugger)... 
hopefully GCC will improve in future :)

they have no real problems with wx, but rather some problems with e.g. 
standard conformancy and/or internal bugs (e.g. borland crashes with 
"excess of debug info" when trying to compile statically in debug mode 
some big wx-based apps).
