Sorry about that.

wxGTK was the version of wxWidgets that I had downloaded at one point.  If 
you installed wxWidgets (make install), then the correct values for those
variables in the Makefile should be 

top_srcdir = $(prefix)/include/wx-2.8
top_builddir = $(prefix)

I should have deleted the other declarations.  Those just tell the 
compiler where to find certain include files.

It's actually a shell script installed by wxWidgets that reads a config
file that was also installed.  The purpose is to be able to get various
parameters so that you can link against wxWidgets.  Try running those
from the command line.
