Another library naming issue, on my Gentoo system the libraries are

libgdk-x11-2.0.so
libgtk-x11-2.0.so

with a .0 after the 2. With that fix it seems to work =).

This looks interesting! I'm curious of one thing though, why separate
bindings for the three UI systems instead of one set of bindings for a
new version of wxwidgets?
