It seems to be a wxWidgets/Mac OS X bug. I've found a thread on wx-users
(see
http://groups.google.fr/group/wx-users/browse_frm/thread/57640f7f187f9c38/f4d36364fa47dafd)
in which this issue is discussed.

They said the native control is borked. So, they added an option to have
a better generic control. You need to set wxCLRBTN_USES_BMP_BUTTON to 1
to have it. I tried this and it works (minor a change to a header file).

Anyways, I sent them an email to fix the header issue and to know if we
really need to set this option. I'm waiting for their answer.

Do you think that the wxCLRBTN_USES_BMP_BUTTON solution is possible for
us? I mean, can you set it before you build Mac OS X release of pgAdmin?
