I'm checking the matplotlib-0.91.1 gentoo ebuild that Sébastien Fabbro put 
together. After installing, I get a number of errors when running 
backend_driver.py that are probably related to MANIFEST.in: missing pyplot 
and npyma. There are many other errors exposed by backend_driver as well, but 
maybe some will clear up with an improved MANIFEST.

Charlie, will you have time to upload an improved src distribution any time 
soon?
