Summary: [wxGenericDirCtrl] change the working dir

Initial Comment:
Maybe there is a bug in wxGenericDirCtrl but I am not sure because I don't know the internals. I postet it some month before in the forum but no one answered.

The working dir of my applications is D:\Garage\project\blackfisk\trunk at the start because the binary is in there. That is ok. 
But If I click inside my wxGenericDirCtrl the working dir change to D:\. It doesn't matter on which item I click (there are 5 other volumes) in the wxGenericDirCtrl - the wxGetCwd() change to D:\ everytime. 

I am using wx from SVN, compiled with MinGW (unicode, debug, monolitic, dll) on WinXP.

Please check if it happens in the dialogs sample. If it doesn't, please
provide a minimal patch necessary to reproduce it.

Thanks!
