I just compiled and tested a checkout of the trunk of today. The cube 
opengl example seems to react fine to keyboard input (nice dice, b.t.w. 
;-)).
The isosurf and penguin examples seem to be outdated w.r.t. some new way 
of using wxGLContext by the looks of it. They compile with lots of 
warnings and crash in wxGLContext::wxGLContext(). I can't directly 
compare to the previous isosurf run on wx 2.8.5, but the cube on 2.9-svn 
seems to suggest that keyboard input is now working correctly.
