Description

It is possible for CGDisplayModeCopyPixelEncoding to return NULL, e.g. during a switch between the built-in screen and an external monitor on a Macbook.

The attached patches for both master and WX_3_0_BRANCH fix the crash by checking the return value of CGDisplayModeCopyPixelEncoding in wxDisplayDepth().
