Comment:

 Hi!

 I made no changes to either the makefile or the config.vc.  I am
 absolutely sure about it.  I just downloaded the wxMSW-2.8.8.zip(not the
 wxWidgets archive but wxMSW archive), and moved to the build/msw directory
 and ran nmake -f makefile.vc BUILD=debug.  It compiled fine.  Now, when I
 tried to link my application, I got the linker errors saying that entry
 point for the wxAppTraitsBase::GetAssertStackTrace method not found. When
 I explore further, I realized that libraries are built without the
 __WXDEBUG__ flag.  I went through the documentation, I rebuilt the
 libraries with the DEBUG_FLAG=1 option, the linker errors disappeared.

 I will try to reproduce the error again, and upload the makefile log.  It
 will help you to understand the problem if any.
