Yeah, technically me, but I haven't actually touched the 2.4 versions.

Stuff linked against wxGTK 2.4 needs to be recompiled to work with 2.6. And
to make matters more fun, audacity 1.2.x doesn't even build against 2.6 even
if the "2.4-compatibility" flags are turned on in wxGTK.

I think getting the FE audacity updated is the solution, but that's not my
package....
