Bug#443883: [PATCH] wxgtk2.6 crashes with recent gtk+

[Jindrich Makovicka]

Package: wxwidgets2.6
Version: 2.6.3.2.1.5
Severity: grave

Hi,

with wxWidgets 2.6 and recent GTK+ in Sid, almost all applications
using wxWidgets crash due to bugs in GtkBorder handling. I have
observed these crashes in aMule (detail dialog), Audacity (about,
preferences) and FileZilla (crashes right at startup). The issue can be
fixed by replacing g_free with gtk_border_free as in the patch.
