 All dialogs should be able to operate without a parent.

 This is almost certainly due to the fact that you don't initialize the
library correctly (at least if your main function is complete). You must
initialize it using either wxInitializer or explicit wxEntryStart() call
and without this nothing, even wxMessageBox, is guaranteed to work (and, in
fact, wxMessageBox won't work in wxGTK, for example, because you won't have
any connection to X/Wayland display server before you initialize the
library).
