I see that support for versioned wx-config has started in cmake-3.3.0
as can be seen from the following diff against an older version.

+ find_program(wxWidgets_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE wx-config wx-config-3.0
DOC "Location of wxWidgets library configuration provider binary
(wx-config)."
ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH
)
However, that change does not go for enough. In particular, Cygwin right now
uses wx-config-2.8 in their wxwidgets-2.8 package. And I presume others
require wxwidgets-2.9 (as can be seen from other versioned bits of
FindwxWidgets.cmake). Finally, the usual CMake philosophy for finding order
is most specific first (in descending order of versions) then generic.
So I recommend for 3.3.0 final the above list of
wx-config wx-config-3.0
be changed to
wx-config-3.0 wx-config-2.9 wx-config-2.8 wx-config
I could transform this into an official change request, but it is such
a no-brainer I hope I don't have to go through that process to get
this into cmake-3.3.0
