Is this in our current wxGTK script?

# Now let's fix the broken symlink created by the package
cd $PKG/usr/bin
  rm wx-config
  if [ "$UNICODE" = "YES" ]; then
    ln -s ../lib/wx/config/gtk2-unicode-release-2.6 wx-config
  elif [ "$UNICODE" = "NO" ]; then
    ln -s ../lib/wx/config/gtk2-ansi-release-2.6 wx-config
  fi
cd -

Does that not work properly?  As I understand it, the symlink
should point to the "unicode" binary if the unicode build is
enabled, and to the "ansi" binary otherwise.  I guess what I'm
asking is this?  Should the link be pointing to the "ansi"
binary regardless?  What else will/can this break?  I'm very
reluctant to do thing different from what upstream does unless
there's a compelling reason - the only reason we had to "fix"
the symlink is because it links inside the $PKG directory (but
the "ansi" or "unicode" part is otherwise the same).

I'm working on this for 12.0rc1 now, so if someone can enlighten
me on this, I'd appreciate it...
