What's the aim of that prove? If you are trying to pave the ground for 
getting wxPython in the stdlib instead of tkinter, I think that's bound to 
fail. Similar proposals have been rejected with the simple argument that 
adding a large library with a huge C dependency to the standard library 
without having a rock solid maintainer for both of them is not going to happen.

Are you volunteering to maintain both wxPython and wxWidgets in the 
standard library for, say, twenty years to come?
