You're probably building all shared libraries? This means that wx.so
links to the other wxLua libraries and wxWidgets libraries which
contain all the code. This is the typical Linux model where these
shared libs can be linked to by many apps or other libs reducing the
overall size of all the apps/libs on disk.
Run "ldd wx.so" to see what libs it depends on.
I decided to try to put everything into the wx.dll for Windows since
having a whole bunch of shared libs is more trouble since the DLLs
have to be in the path or same dir and "Windows people" are not as
used to seeing a whole bunch of shared libs along with the app.
