Jean-Pierre,

I built wxWidgets 2.9.0 for linux, and this enabled me understand the 
problem better.

See my new inline function GetChars() in macros.h

I think that will work in a version independent way.

So we can revert to

ThrowIOError( _("Unable to open file \"%s\""), GetChars(filename) );


I will commit revised specctra files shortly.
