Summary: GetValue of wxComboBox return old value

Initial Comment:
When for a wxComboBox a value in the selection list is 
selected, then within the event handling (callback) 
established via EVT_COMBOBOX or EVT_TEXT:
<event>.GetString() correctly returns the NEW value but
<combobox>.GetValue() returns the OLD value although 
the documentation says it should return the NEW value.

This error appears in wxWidgets 2.6.3.3, it worked 
correctly in wxWidgets 2.4.2.4, both under Windows and 
wxPython.

Modified code of the wxPython demo of the wxComboBox:

    # When the user selects something, we go here.
    def EvtComboBox(self, evt):
        cb = evt.GetEventObject()
        data = cb.GetClientData(evt.GetSelection())
        self.log.WriteText('EvtComboBoxy: %
s\nClientData: %s\n' % (evt.GetString(), data))
        self.log.WriteText('CB: %s\n' % (cb.GetValue
()))

        if evt.GetString() == 'one':
            self.log.WriteText("You follow directions 
well!\n\n")
