wx3 is not officially supported yet.

From the current README.txt file:
5. Compilation instructions

First you must download wxWidgets. Audacity 2.0.6 requires wxWidgets 2.8.12
9/10 questions are answered in the FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

These are 2 configurations in the current experimental Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Project which has built fine until today. Without pointing any fingers, something which was committed today cause these 2 configurations to break; I think all of these have to do with the new Spectral Selection toolbar. They should be trivial to fix; the Developers should be encouraged to build every configuration before they commit – this has been a perennial, though infrequent, problem.
