WARNING: Building this way assumes that all generated files have been
generated already. If that is not the case then use build.py directly
to generate the source and perform the build stage. You can use
--skip-build with the bdist_* or install commands to avoid this
message and the wxWidgets and Phoenix build steps in the future.
