OK, later wxPythons don't allow NULL for parent= anymore.

Fixed that (setting parent to self), tested on my machine.

What happens is exceptionally ugly but works (try "leon" for
name fragment).

understand the value of pulling in more data when searching for
a patient's name.

Have a look at gmDemographicRecord, too.
