One possibility is that the path from the traceback /Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/6.0.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages is not the same as your PREFIX "PREFIX=/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/Current/" unless "Current" is a symlink to 6.0.0 which it very well may be. Can you confirm? If you are getting different versions, you'll need to set your PYTHONPATH. Alternatively, we may need to set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH or similar to find the libs we built. They should be in $PREFIX/lib. You can use otool to see what the linker is finding in your current environment > otool -L /Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/Current/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/ft2font.so There may be another way -- you can set your prefix to something like PREFIX=~/tmpbuild and then build as before but do 'make binaries' rather than 'make mpl_install'. Then use the binary installer to do the system install. This may get you a build with the support libs statically linked in, though I am not sure about this. Sorry this is such a pain -- I keep trying to make a build script that works for people but it obviously isn't there yet.
