I=E2=80=99ll find it for you Weds/Thursday.   (I hope!). I have just starte=
d updating our Perl stack to 5.34.  So I hope I can find my notes.  But I t=
hink it was two things and one was that wxPerl did not understand versions =
5.3x this was last year and 5.32.1 and my memory is rusty. I thought I kept=
 notes , or heaven forbid a patch file :-).

BI/bindings changes at some point which break it.
