Michiel, Thanks to you, Tony, and Matthew for your quick responses. I am going to close the ticket. Do you know anything about how Enthought packages their python and mpl for the Mac? Would it be as a framework? If you think there is something that really should be fixed for the Mac to prevent future problems, and if it can be fixed without creating more problems, please do so. Your suggestion above could be implemented in the svn trunk, at your discretion. I'm not going to do it because I don't understand it and can't test it.
