It isn't the first time wx is not configured differently giving troubles
with kicad... IIRC the first binaries were using *static* wx to avoid
these... it's more a problem of wx, really (for example, with the
default config wx doesn't include OpenGL support... you need it for
kicad)

No idea on why this requirement was added since I only use plots (since
print output usually sucks big time :P)
