Building wxWidgets 2.9.0 Ubuntu Packages

[Kip Warner]

So apparently there is a bug in wx2.8 series that was finally patched 
into svn HEAD. I've checked out the source and would like to build the 
Ubuntu packages. I get a number of pre-compilation related errors. It 
could be a buggy debian/build_all script.
