Sounds like the gcc-2.95 compiler is more pedantic about matching types for
function calls than previous versions.  You will probably have to modify
mdi.cpp:1140 so that the function call mathces the prototype by casting
argument 1.  You should also post your original email to the wxWindows mailing
list as a potential bug report.
