Hmmm, worked fine for me (on "x86"), Which versions of wxPython and wxGTK are you using?
I am using wxGTK 2.4.2 and wxPython is not installed, I'm emerging it right now.
I've emerged wxPython, but amule stille fails with the same error.

Only thing I know is it compiled on my stable system and it works fine here too. Just try to downgrade wxGTK (just guessing).
Well, I'm not in favor for downgrading my software. Then rather mark amule not working with wxGTK > 2.4.1. But I't still a bug until either the amule developers have made amule working with 2.4.2, or It's been marked not working with newer versions in portage.
Either try with wxGTK-2.4.1 or find someone else who is using wxGTK-2.4.2 .. I havn't heard of any incompatibilities between 2.4.1 and 2.4.2. I don't think you can judge that this is a bug in amule/wxGTK or whatever if you didn't try other/older versions...it could as well be a bug in gcc-3.3.1 or how your wxGTK is linked again Gtk+ etc. could you please try again with amule-1.0.9 ?
I'm not judging, just saying that _if_ it's a problem with amule and wxGTK > 2.4.1 it should be marked a so. I've just tried emerging amule 1.0.9, and it failed as well with the following result (tell me if you want the complete output): make[3]: Entering directory

your wxGTK seems to be linked against Gtk+2 and the amule developers don't support wxGTK linked against Gtk+2 because they say "wxGTK is not ready for it", so it could also be a problem of wxGTK being linked against Gtk+2 (that would only fail on wxGTK >=2.4.2 then since <=2.4.1 linked against Gtk+-2 works). To be honest, amule doesn't have much priority right now, so don't expect me to check this out anytime soon. It would be helpful if you could try it for yourself or find someone else with wxGTK-2.4.2 and check wether it works when it's linked against Gtk+-1 or just drop the amule developers a request to work towards Gtk+2 :) Applications using wxGTK are sometimes generally a bit complicated to handle, but I really don't have the time at the moment to look into the various problems all the *mule clients have. (Also don't expect amule to leave ~ anytime soon)
Thanks for looking at it, I'll ask the amule team to make it compile against GTK+2. And I'll se if I can get it working on another machine. I've just filled another bugreport on xmule, which returns an error which seems like the same error as I get with amule, properly because one is a fork of the other. The bugreport is at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31446, I'll take is as if the same applies to xmule.
I just checked in a check function in all xmule and amule ebuilds, please test it
I've just reemerged wxGTK without unicode support, and amule compiles against it perfectly.
Unfortunatly we cannot do anything about it, it's the developers job to fix unicode support in their application, so you have to live with that work-around. I added a check function to the ebuilds wether wxGTK was compiled with unicode support and there is nothing more we can do about this at the moment. resolved / fixed
