You should do `pip install -r requirements.txt` to get other build-time 
dependencies.

Cygwin bash is required for running the script that generates the input for 
the etg step. I've made changes in the master branch that make it less 
picky about which bash.exe is installed (git bash, msys, wsl) but in the 
4.0.x series it still expects cygwin.  IIRC, bash is needed because the 
regen.bat script doesn't provide enough flexibility to run doxygen the way 
we need to run it.

If you don't need to make changes to the wxPython or wxWidgets source then 
I recommend doing your build from a release or snapshot tarball instead of 
from a git checkout.  All the generated files are present in the tarballs, 
so you can skip all the steps related to generating the sip and c++ files 
and just do `python build.by build`, or you can instead just run setup.py 
with normal distutils/setuptools commands.
