Ok, sorry for the confusion. There were two problems: 

-The .conf file in mpl-data was not being read. It is fixed in svn 3645.

-The .conf file is not auto-generated by setup.py. This is a more difficult 
problem, so I am not going to work on it unless we decide to adopt the new 
module. In the mean time, the file can be auto-generated by running 
mplconfig.
