I've been running MPL 0.90 rev3250 since April 18 on numerous computers around here using the wxAgg backend using stock wx on both Ubuntu Edgy and Ubuntu Feisty. A quick look into exactly what that means shows that Edgy is using 2.6 by default and 2.8 is used by Feisty. Therefore, I conclude that, if your changes were present in that revision, everything seems to be working OK for both 2.6 and 2.8.
