Since this question is about linux (FC5) setup.h_vms (although it defines
the variable has nothing to do with it.
(E-mail coming from me not automatically is about OpenVMS!!)

The documentation on page
  http://www.wxwindows.org/manuals/2.6.3/wx_wxthread.html#wxthread
tells me that it is ignored for unix (linux) systems

However, I see now the problem : it is not implemented in the last stable
release 2.6.3. So I'll have to upgrade to 2.7.0.



I normally develop on openVMS (where I have all the bleeding edge
versions of the packages). On the linux system I have only the stable versions
running. (and wxWidgets 2.7.0 is still listed as a test version)
