wxWidgets shows some heritance roots from MFC, but is somewhat more sane 
and less quirky. I have used it for some simple GUI tools and it was not 
too hard to get it working, at least not compared to MFC frustrations.

 From what I have heard, Qt ought to be better and a "first choice", but 
because of license incompatibilities we have not been able to actually 
try it.

In general, do not hope to find a single library which does everything 
you need. The C++ standard library provides many things, but for actual 
work one still needs other libraries. Our main software package depends 
on 56 third-party libraries, for example. Getting them all compilable 
and somewhat updated is like herding a really wild bunch of cats.
