Demo Bug?

I have wxpython 2.2.9 installed on a debian woody system. Running the
custom table demo, if I size the frame so that the bottom, new-data row
is partly covered, select a cell in that row and start typing, the
program crashes with a segmentation fault. If I add an
EVT_GRID_SELECT_CELL event and insert the method, 'MakeCellVisible()'
into the appropriate function, the crash does not occur when a
data-containing row is partly hidden; a scrollbar appears, and the row
becomes entirely visible. But this does not happens with that bottom
row: the program still crashes when it is not completely visible.

If I size the frame so that the bottom row is entirely visible, insert
data into it and then advance to a new bottom row, the program does not
crash if the new bottom row is partly hidden. I cannot enter data, but
the program remains viable.

Is this behavior unique to my system? If more widespread, has it been
fixed? If not, I am willing to file a bug report but do not know the
procedure.

It was fixed sometime during the 2.3 series.
