Just got wxmax from svn and I get these errors if I try to compile the aui sample

The current Linux static libs are built against GCC 4.x, whereas you might be compiling your BlitzMax code with 3.3.
The two aren't binary compatible (as far as linking is concerned).

How exactly do I get it to compile then? I already tried installing gcc-4.1.

I have removed gcc-3.3 (or 3.4) from my distro using Synaptic Package Manager. Since it appears that BlitzMax by default expects to find gcc-3.3 and (and I think cpp-3.3) I created symbolic links named gcc-3.3 and cpp-3.3 and pointed these to gcc-4.1 and cpp-4.1 respectively. I now seem to be able to complete the build process and get an executable although some of the examples fail on running - see my recent thrad.
Hope this of assistance
