Looks right. Please try replacing the 180 with 173 in wx.h. That should
solve it for you. If it does, let me know so I can update the real
source.

Park originally wrote wxRuby assuming the Ruby 1.8 features were
available, including StringValue. I use Ruby 1.6.8, and it wasn't
working for me, so Park created macros in wx.h that provide more-or-less
the same functionality. So it's ok that they're different.
