 This is because you don't need such option, configure can determine it
automatically: if you have <iostream> (and you do), it defines
wxUSE_IOSTREAMH to 1, otherwise it defines it to 0.

 No, this is useless (although harmless) with --enable-stl. The
--enable-std_string provides better compatibility of wxString with
std::basic_string when wxUSE_STL==0, if it is 1, then you have 100%
compatibility because wxString is a std::basic_string.

 Yes, you may want to include --enable-debug_gdb. It is off by default,
even with --enable-debug, because it dramatically increases the size of the
output files.
