killerbot:
the project files to build ansi are gone also from svn !!
Yiannis said it is unicode now.
That's why I want to raise this in this topic, to figure out how and if ...

it's not - just edit WX_SUFFIX custom variable

Umm...? The current project is the former UNI project, so you can very well build an ANSI version with that one, it was made for that purpose... :)
Personally, I think (and I may be wrong of course) that people using Windows 98 are rather a minority, and they know that they are using an outdated OS, and thus they have to expect (and are expecting) some drawback when it comes to new technologies. Unicode is one such issue, and gdb 6.3 is another.
I mean seriously, you (almost) cannot buy a PC without buying XP for several years now.
My point is that to make it half-way work for a few people, we have to add yet another hack for everybody. This means increased download size, possibly reduced stability, and increased load times for everybody.
So it may be worth a consideration if you maybe just have to accept that Windows98 and Unicode don't do together (at least not easily).

And probably the global var "wx" ? Since it will need to link with other libs and include another setup.h, (if so, feasible and cumbersome), can someone acknowledge this or tell me otherwise ?
[EDIT] : is probably ok
So I see suggestion to keep providing an ansi build for the win9x product line.
thomas:
No, just WX_SUFFIX will do (and define undefine wxUSE_UNICODE of course).
