First, since you said you used pkg-config I would like to know what libfreetype the ft2font.so lib is actually linked against. Can you issue an otool -L ft2font.so in the matplotlib's directory? This will tell you what libs are used.
I think most important is the compiler used, but since you are on 10.4 apparently, I don't know what the recent compiler for you is. Is it gcc-4.0? (It seems to be.) Are there other gcc's around which could have been used for the libfreetype2, or for Python itself? Can you issue in a clean shell gcc --version, and it seems you used c++ as the command for .cpp sources, right, so can you issue c++ --version too? And what were your steps to get it build from the weird errors you posted before (I didn't get a clue from them). I don't know if I can help you but at least I can try to, right ....
