glutInit and wxPython on Mac OSX

[Artie]

I seem to have uncovered a problem when using glutInit alongside
wxPython on Mac OSX.  If glutInit is called prior to creating a
wx.App, many window and mouse events are either lost, not generated,
or misgenerated for the glcanvas.  However, if glutInit is called
after the wx.App has been created then all is well.

Has anyone ran across this issue before?  If so, why does this order
matter or affect the wx Event system?
