Strange, you are right. I wonder why nobody else notified us in the last 1 1/2 years. The issue seems to be fixed in the latest wxMaxima release, so you can use that (download it from Github) in the meantime.

I hope a new Maxima release will happen soon (and probably we should do a wxMaxima release before, some issues were fixed now). Best regards, Wolfgang
