The issue is, I think, that if wx is build as a static library against
a static GTK, the linker seems try to be clever and drops functions
(or maybe just the symbols for them) that aren't used. It wouldn't
link without a direct linkage to GTK for the double buffer stuff,
but worked fine for the mouse state stuff. Don't ask me :-)
