And with 'wxWidgets-2.9.0-RC2.tar.bz2' too. However:

BTW, I've upgraded from MinGW gcc-3.4.4 to 3.4.5 . Of course, 3.4.5 isn't
remarkably newer; I upgraded mainly to get the latest runtime and binutils.

There's a new one with RC2:

cd ../src/stc && ./gen_iface.py

I have read the '-isystem' documentation. Let me ask which directory
you would suggest using it for: the wx source directory? If you mean
gcc's 'include/c++/3.4.5/bits/' directory, then...well, shouldn't
gcc already consider that a "system" directory?

BTW, here's a patch for building this release candidate with lmi's
makefiles:
