+What's new in 0.4.2
+-------------------

+wxPython on wxGTK works!!!  Both dynamic and static on Linux and
+static on Solaris have been tested.  Many thanks go to Harm
+<H.v.d.Heijden@phys.tue.nl> for his astute detective work on tracking
+down a nasty DECREF bug.  Okay so I have to confess that it was just a
+DSM (Dumb Stupid Mistake) on my part but it was nasty none the less
+because the behavior was so different on different platforms.

+The dynamicly loaded module on Solaris is still segfaulting, so it

 linked with the Python interpreter.  When built as a dyamically loaded
