My bad, I should have updated INSTALL.pod:
0.60 Sat Nov 11 16:48:57 CET 2006
<snip>
- Removed support for wxWidgets 2.4. Supports 2.5.3 and above.
Sorry for the wasted time :-(

It matters becaus A::wx is the interface to getting the
compilation flags for wxWidgets.

Makefile.PL vs. ext/Makefile.PL

Yes: Alien::wxWidgets is required when running Makefile.PL,
so if it is missing, a re-run of Makefile.PL is forced. It would
have been smarter on my part to also print an explanation message
when this is detected...
