I guess there are always some unhappy customers ;)

Actually, I guess this is the right thing to do... However, I think
that the redundancy should be exploited. That is, I'm willing to use
the FindPkgConfig macros/functions to post-process (even gather) the
wx-config output.

However, I'll need some time before I can implement/test all this.
Also, what does the pkg-config module do with the options: -framework,
-isysroot, -arch, etc. What is the correct thing to do with these
parameters in CMake? I would need to check this too, I suppose.

Thanks,
