Sorry, there's not much I can do to help you here -
wxperl/wxwidgets has always been problematic with PAR::Packer.
The problem might be caused by some Wx::* glue DLL [1] that references
another Wx::* glue DLL [2]. This gets broken by PAR::Packer as it
extracts glue DLLs with mangled names.
In that case, sometimes it seems to help to add the referenced glue DLL also as
an -l option.
You may search the par mailing list (par@perl.org),
e.g. via http://www.mail-archive.com/par@perl.org/info.html
or on Google Groups, for similar problems.
BTW:

These two -l options shouldn't be necessary.

[1] The "glue DLLs" are the files Wx\Wx.dll and Wx\Foo\Foo.dll located
somewhere below your C:\Perl\site\lib.
[2] If you have the objdump program from the Mingw32 toolchain
you can check which DLLs foo.dll references with
objdump -a -x foo.dll | grep "DLL Name"
