This is much more working than I had imagined, not sure what the problems
with splashscreen or locales yet (those inscrutablly mangled C++ undefined
symbols are as helpful as usual).  Obviously, as Padre's dependencies are
quite a bit more than this, so this is definitely a post 4.5 operation.  
Still, Padre and Wx::* itself seem to merit some attention. Wx seems a
lot easier to use in Perl than Gtk2 does, and Padre seems a decent
alternative to Eclipse+EPIC and [g]vim+perl support (nvi or mg using Perl
hackers, this is probably not going to be for you).
