3) in lib/matplotlib.egg-info/PKG-INFO, the version is specified as
0.87.5-r2761

Issues 2 and 3 appear to stem from matplotlib attempting to use
setuptools for those who would, but not requiring it. I think the
cleanest solution would be to make the actual sdist release using
setuptools -- this should bring these issues into the open rather than
lurking for someone like me to find them.
