  The first thing to do is try rebuilding the file and looking at the
preprocessed output.  Cut and paste the build command from the log file and
add the '--save-temps -dD -E' options, remove the -c, -o and -M options, then
look at Analyzer.ii, which should have been created.  Find out what line 182
of winnt.h is getting translated to, and then search back up in the file to
find out where the #define is coming from. 

  Here's what your command line will need to look like, sorry about how badly
wrapped this one is going to get.

g++ -D_WIN32_ -D__GNUWIN32__ -DSTRICT -D__WXMSW__ -D__WINDOWS__ 
-D__WXDEBUG__
