The multiple Python versions that are on most OSX systems is a pain. The solution is to install FEniCS and Matplotlib with the same Python version, i.e. install Matplotlib with the same Python version as FEniCS uses, or if you install Matplotlib via MacPorts then re-build FEniCS with the MacPorts provided Python. Hopefully FEniCS will be in MacPorts soon.
