I don't know whether lib/matplotlib/type1font.py meets this test. It is needed by the usetex support for at least the pdf backend. Owing to a former business model of Adobe, Type-1 fonts are encrypted. The algorithm and encryption key are now widely known (and Adobe distributes a technical note disclosing them), but it is still an encryption algorithm. The current version of type1font.py does not decrypt fonts, but it accesses the encrypted part of a font and can be used to copy it in the output postscript or pdf file. That could fall under "otherwise use" as far as I understand (English is not my first language, and legalese far less). I have had some plans of adding Type-1 font subsetting support, which I believe requires including the encryption algorithm.
