wxPython-src-2.8.4.0 link problem

[James A. Benson]

Hello,

   I have been upgrading/reinstalling/installing wxPython
on various machines. I have managed to install
wxPython-src-2.8.4.0 on a FC5 32bit machine and
a F7 32bit machine. On a 64bit Linux enterprise 4 machine
I have a problem. If anyone has any hints/suggestions, i would greatly
appreciate hearing them:
