I've found what I think is the problem, matplotlib/__init__.py does not exist,
so something went wrong with the bdist_mpkg process. You can try grabbing it
from the SVN repository and putting it in .../site-packages/matplotlib/


https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/__init__.py

Of course, there may be other pieces missing from the package.
