I also noticed that change and I´m currently using the following
workaround to fetch the wxGBSizerItems:

        # my_gbs is the GridBagSizer in question
        
        windows = my_gbs.GetContainingWindow().GetChildren()
        gbsizeritems = []
        for window in windows:
            item = self.FindItem(window)
            gbsizeritems.append(item)

       # now gbsizeritems is a list of wxGBSizerItems...
