Here's the same for wxwidgets2.8. This issue should be fixed next release 2.8.5.0, but in the mean time this should probably be applied for applications that use newer wxw. I didn't test this patch out though, but I tried building vlc with wxwidgets2.8 to find out it crashes the same way (volume slider was still missing as before).
