You need to build wxWidgets using Alien::wxWidgets which patches version 
2.9.4. The error in wxWidgets 2.9.4 is fixed in the trunk of that 
project, but the released 2.9.4 is broken.

see http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/14483

The wxWidgets bug only appears in applications like wxPerl that load the 
wxWidgets libraries as plugins.

It will be a couple of days before I can test a re-release of Wx fixing 
the issues in app.h for MacOSX but it will not work anyway on a none 
patched version of wxWidgets.

Regards

Mark
