Comment:

 I'd assume your python is universal i386+x86_64, and since wxWidgets can
 only build for 32-bit archs, you would have to specifically run python in
 32-bit mode to use it. e.g.
 {{{
 arch -i386 python2.7
 }}}
 So there's probably nothing that can be fixed here, unless you want to
 argue that python should re-execute itself as a different arch when it
 can't load a .so.
