A no GUI version of wxWidgets?

I begin with a confession of utter ignorance of wxWidgets,
so I have no idea how stupid this question is :-).

I see lots of different implementations of wxWidgets with
different underlying toolkits. Is there an implementation
which doesn't do GUI at all? I.e. merely has all the other
wxWidgets structure, but fails if you actually try to
do any GUI operations?

I ask because truecrypt 5.0 was just released and it is
completely rewritten to use wxWidgets throughout, and that
currently renders it incapable of operating without an X
server to make the library happy (even when you use the
option that says you are running in text mode only).

It would be very handy if I could just plug the right
wxWidgets source code into the build, and wind up with
a true text mode only truecrypt.
