I'm sorry for the late reply... but yes Bill is right. On Windows, we
look for the libraries with some find_library magic and this statement
is correct. On linux, it uses `wx-config --libs` output which is a
list of linker options.

Maybe, I should document it as:

wxWidgets_LIBRARIES - Path to the wxWidgets libraries in windows. For
unix style it includes a list of linker options.

Comments?
