The error is from this patch:

https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror/commit/24f9bfa13b54267417ec971dca6cac005ce8b857

May I suggest whoever updates it, also adds a comment about intentionally
using wxFileConfig?

Is there even a point in typecasting the pointer from GetNewConfig to
wxConfigBase instead of just returning wxFileConfig?
