wxPython crash on Gentoo

I think I might wait. But the funny thing is that even with wxPython 2.8.8.0 or 2.8.7.? this works without crashing on Xubuntu and on Suse 11.0 (tried with a LiveCD). And the Dabo developers can't reproduce the problem. That's why I put all that version and use flag info into my first post: I really think it's my installation. Could it be that I need a newer GCC version or something like that?

Thank you,
Sibylle

The problem in the wx.IntersectRect wrapper has been fixed already. If
you need something right away you can pull a new snapshot of the code
from the 2.8 branch in SVN, otherwise it will be in the next release.

Possibly. There does appear to be some compiler specific situation here as on Windows I was only able to duplicate it on the Py 2.6 version which uses the MSVC 9 compiler, but not on 2.5 which uses the MSVC 7.1 compiler.
