The entire wxWindows project is about providing common interface to Win32, Motif and GTK+ APIs (and now also OS/2 and Mac) and all these APIs are quite similar compared to TkInter, for example. BTW, some time ago (in the very beginning of KDE vs. GNOME war) some people did propose to write wxQt port which would allow writing programs in wxWindows and build them either using wxGTK (=> GNOME) or wxQt (=> KDE). However it never really started because of lack of interest: apparently, people writing programs for GNOME are not that interested in running them under KDE and vice versa. But, to return to the main subject: I don't belive that you can do it. Even with unlimited amount of free time (a strong assumption) it would still be difficult to do it without creating a 100Mb monster library collapsing under its own weight and complexity.
