[pypy-dev] matplotlib, and numpy

I have had less time to contribute to pypy lately, so here is where the
things I took responsibility for stand:
numpy
- there are many failing tests due to the way numpy random.seed works.
Upstream uses a mtrand module, and I simply wrapped the existing python
random module. There are subtle differences between the seed in the
different modules, we get a different series when setting the seed in our
mtrand module.
- numpy.linalg.inv does not work (see below)

matplotlib
- linlag support in numpy is not really working. This means any kind of
point transform does not work, which precludes use of legends and maybe
subplots, I did not check.
- backend support for a gui framework is also missing.
so what works (I last checked 4 months ago) is basic plotting and saving to
a file.
The repo, for lack of a better place, lives here, I would be happy to put
it somewhere more public.
