This is an old bug [1], exposed some month ago and yet to be fixed
(although the patch is out there in the wxWidgets bug tracker). There
is nothing we can do at the wxPython level other than waiting for the
AUI experts to fix it in the C++ implementation. Actually the first
one to report the bug was a wxPython user :-D .
