Pity that the upgrader did not work for you.

That should look something like this if you want to stay compatible with 
Boa.

[wxID_PANELTFIRST, wxID_PANELTFIRSTFIRSTIMP, 
wxID_PANELTFIRSTREMARKSFIRSTIMP,
 wxID_PANELTFIRSTSTFIRSTIMP, wxID_PANELTFIRSTSTREMARKSFIRSTIMP,
] = [wx.NewId() for _init_ctrls in range(5)]

But anyhow I don't think it is a good idea to pollute the wx namespace 
with all that, unlikely that you get a conflict but who knows.
