wxPython Crashes with basic example

[Benjamin Kaplan]

I looked up the error code- c0000005 is Microsoft's cryptic way of telling
you that you had a seg fault. You might want to ask this on the wxPython
mailing list (http://www.wxpython.org/maillist.php) since I'm pretty sure
it's an issue with wx.
