This is a long standing Python (distutils) bug, IMHO. Numpy, for instance, ships with a heavily patched version of distutils that has a workaround for this. Maybe now that mpl requires Numpy, there may be some advantage to using its distutils rather than the stock one. (I say having not looked into it very deeply).
I've always got the impression that Python with C++ is sort of an afterthought -- I don't think C++ extensions are part of the regular testing procedure for distutils.
