You'd better use the version of wxwindows we have put in our contribs : 

http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/0.7.2/contrib/wxWindows-20031222.tar.gz

Moreover, I don't you haven't already done it, you should compile
wxwindows with the --with-gtk option

You don't need ffmpeg to receive MPEG2/ts streams (which you are likely
doing if you are using vls). You however need libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) and
libdvbpsi

ffmpeg should be compiled statically, with the
--with-ffmpeg-tree=/path/to/ffmpeg/sources option
