The first thing I tried was to enable the new config package and run 
backend_driver. I'm impressed, I saw only one error that doesnt occur in the 
trunk:

        driving mri_with_eeg.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "_tmp_mri_with_eeg.py", line 13, in <module>
    from matplotlib.transforms import get_bbox_transform, Point, Value, Bbox,\
ImportError: cannot import name get_bbox_transform

backend_driver was a little slow to run on the transforms branch:

Backend Agg took 2.94 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.527, template residual 1.015
Backend PS took 1.80 minutes to complete
        template ratio 0.933, template residual -0.129
Backend Template took 1.92 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.000, template residual 0.000
Backend PDF took 2.17 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.129, template residual 0.248
Backend SVG took 2.08 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.082, template residual 0.158

as compared to the trunk:

Backend Agg took 1.53 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.628, template residual 0.589
Backend PS took 1.34 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.426, template residual 0.399
Backend Template took 0.94 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.000, template residual 0.000
Backend PDF took 1.62 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.726, template residual 0.680
Backend SVG took 1.45 minutes to complete
        template ratio 1.548, template residual 0.514
