I just discovered that matplotlib 0.98.3 is not compatible with pytz 
2008c due to an unexpected change in pytz. The following fix works (I 
chucked it into __init__.py near the beginning).

# the following fix for compatibility with pytz 1.4.1 is from
# <http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg07816.html>
import pytz
try:
    import pytz.zoneinfo
except ImportError:
    pytz.zoneinfo = pytz.tzinfo
    pytz.zoneinfo.UTC = pytz.UTC
