Here are my notes:
wxFormBuilder for Mac
As pointed out by @melto, a stable released version, 3.1.70, for os x works as well. The link to sourceforge http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxformbuilder/files/wxformbuilder/3.1.70/wxFormBuilder-3.1.dmg/download

This was also mentioned for Windows or Linux only

To install wxPython package into your Python on Mac OSX
brew install wxpython
http://superuser.com/questions/196197/installing-wxpython-via-pip-or-easy-install
Download wxWidgets from site (I downloaded v3.1)
I tried standard with latest GCC compiler
./configure
make install (this takes a long time!)
make
When complete you will get this result but note where the new library resides:
if test ! -d /usr/local/include/wx-3.1/`dirname $f` ; then \
mkdir -p /usr/local/include/wx-3.1/`dirname $f`; \
fi; \
cp -fp ./include/$f /usr/local/include/wx-3.1/$f; \
done
Here is another set of library path (and include for the library)
/Users/quantlabsnet/Documents/cpp/wxWidgets-3.1.0/lib/wx/include/osx_cocoa-unicode-3.1/wx
Include director for headers (.h)
/Users/quantlabsnet/Documents/cpp/wxWidgets-3.1.0/include/wx
Another attempt to download/build wxWidgets on Ubuntu Linux but Python
http://wiki.wxpython.org/InstallingOnUbuntuOrDebian
https://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Installing_and_configuring_under_Ubuntu
Configure Eclipse CDT https://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Eclipse
Instead I tried to make a sample project out of a project
/Users/quantlabsnet/Documents/cpp/wxWidgets-3.1.0/samples/image
make all
It worked! You go to directory of:
/Users/quantlabsnet/Documents/cpp/wxWidgets-3.1.0/samples
make all
This will make all sample projects executable
Description of samples here http://docs.wxwidgets.org/trunk/page_samples.html
Ones of interest: console, dialog, exec, image,layout, mdi (great layout components),
Menu, opengl/isosurf, richtext, sashtest, scroll, shaped, splitter (window), statbar, stc, thread, toolbar,xrc ,treelist, treectrl, listctrl, ribbon (another good gui)
++ many more

Surprise from this tutorial:
Retrieving the settings on Mac OS X
If you have Mac OS X 10.4 or higher, it comes preinstalled with wxWidgets. Just open up a terminal and type:
It does include configuring help for Linux and Windows as well.
Another tip for Mac OSX with Eclipse
