Addendum: I also should have commented out the line:

deb http://mirror.steadfast.net/debian/ jessie main contrib

With that commented in, apt was pulling in part of wxwidgets 3.0.

root@hawk:~# apt-get install libwxgtk2.8-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

The following extra packages will be installed:
  libjpeg8 libtiff4 libwxbase2.8-0 libwxbase2.8-dev libwxbase3.0-0 
libwxgtk2.8-0 wx-common wx2.8-headers

Not what I wanted.

So commenting out that line, re-installing wxwidgets, and I was able to
compile. I got a lot of non-fatal error messages of the form

/usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/dynarray.h:829:5: note: in expansion of macro 
‘WX_DEFINE_EXPORTED_TYPEARRAY_PTR’
     WX_DEFINE_EXPORTED_TYPEARRAY_PTR(T, name, wxBaseArrayPtrVoid)
     ^

but the project compiles, installs and runs.

Adventures in computing!

Thanks again.
