Summary: wxFileDialog on FreeBSD

Initial Comment:
Here's a minimal test program that demonstrates this
problem. It works on windows fine. See the comments in
the call to wxFileDialog. Basically, wxFileDialog does
not show the first type of files in the drop down box,
but it will show other files if they are not part of
the first selection.

I don't know what SF.net is. I'll try there too. Can
you tell me where it is?

I'm running FreeBSD 5.4, wxgtk2-2.6.1, xorg.

The problem turns out to be white space surrounding the '|'
character.
If you change " | " to "|" it works on FreeBSD. On windows
the whitespace doesn't matter. The behaviour should be
consistent.

Change
(*.png)|*.png | JPG files (*.jpg)|*.jpg",

to
(*.png)|*.png|JPG files (*.jpg)|*.jpg",
