yes, it does (well, not exactly, but it does include it's own copies of 
the wx libs)

However, the issue is not which wx wxPython is using, but which wx 
matplotlib was built against.

yup, that's it all right.

when mpl is building , it looks for a utility called wx-config, that 
tells it where to find the headers and libs it needs. The default 
wx-config on OS-X will point to the wrong wx, so you need to set a n 
environment variable or something pointing to the correct wx-config.

Sorry I don't have the specific details right now, but it should be in 
the archives, or poke through setup.py and associated files for more 
info. I think I put a helpful warning in there at some point.

good luck,

-Chris
