Bitten by distutils again. Attempting to get a complete clean rebuild, I was deleting dist-packages/matplot*, but not dist-packages/mpl_toolkits/. Of course, doing that blows away basemap, which is not really what I want. It would be simpler if everything installed by matplotlib's setup.py, and nothing else, would land in a single tree (package). Having several things land in mpl_toolkits, and having other things also land there, is a pain. Maybe we are stuck with it. Or maybe things like basemap should be packages in their own right, parallel to matplotlib, instead of being inside mpl_toolkits.
