Well, you shouldn't get that error, but you shouldn't use "import * " 
anyway. see:

http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/wxPython_Style_Guide

When you do import *, a bunch of name mangling has to go on to add the 
"wx" back at the beginning of all the identifiers. This is done to keep 
backward compatibility, but it may be broken.

Does it work if you just use "import wx" ?
