Argh, so close!

OK, try removing the build directory from your path, and then running
this (as root):

`/usr/local/bin/wx-config --rezflags` /usr/local/bin/aven 

Assuming you installed wx in /usr/local too (that's the default I
believe) - if not, change the path to wx-config...

Then see if the installed aven works.  My hunch is that "install"
doesn't copy the resource fork that we carefully add to aven.
