I have change matplotlib.get_py2exe_datafiles() to:
def get_py2exe_datafiles():
    import glob
   
    mplfiles = []
    for item in glob.glob(os.sep.join([get_data_path(), '*/*'])):
        if os.path.isdir(item):
            mplfiles += glob.glob(os.sep.join([item, '/*']))
           
    mplfiles.append(os.sep.join([get_data_path(), 'matplotlibrc']))

    try:
        mplfiles.remove(os.sep.join([get_data_path(), 'Matplotlib.nib']))
    except:
        pass

    return ('matplotlibdata', mplfiles)

Now this creates a "flat" folder, i.e. all datafiles are directly under 
matplotlibdata.  In my tests this works for me in my limited tests, with 
the exception that I also get the "Could not match Bitstream Vera 
......etc" error - but this is something I also get with py2exe, so I 
don't know if this is an issue.

Andrew, do you know if the sub-folder structure should be retained when 
using py2exe for matplotlib to work correctly in all circumstances?  If 
that would be the case let me know and I try to come up with something.
