it would be very nice for wxCode devs (and other wxWidgets devs) to have 
http://www.bakefile.org/ticket/236 in this release...

In fact currently lots of bakefiles.bkgen files for wx-based apps contains a 
line like:

<add-flags>-I %WXWIN%/build/bakefiles/wxpresets</add-flags>

The WXWIN env var is very useful to avoid using absolute paths in files which 
are placed in the SVN repo.

Also, many devs don't like / don't want to know about the build system and thus 
using the environment variable is better than using <include 
file="Bakefiles.bkgen.local" ignore_missing="1"/> and put the <adds-flags>-I 
myabsolutepath</add-flags> in the Bakefiles.bkgen.local...

Also the patch makes bakefile_gen a little smarter about expression evaluation...

Francesco
