Hello,

I have been packaging kicad (which uses wxwidgets), and I came across 
the
same window resizing issues. I got around them by adding a version of
wxwidgets-3.0.2 which uses gtk+-2 as an input.

I plan to post the patches soon, but if it works for aegisub, you can
add it first. I use the following package definition:

(define-public wxwidgets-gtk2
   (package (inherit wxwidgets)
            (inputs `(("gtk+" ,gtk+-2)
                      ,@(alist-delete
                         "gtk+"
                         (package-inputs wxwidgets))))
            (name "wxwidgets-gtk2")))
