Chris,
This error is due to more stringent error checking in pyobjc2 which
ships with Leopard. I was just preparing a patch to send to the
matplotlib dev guys, but if you replace all instances of self.image
with self._image in backend_cocoaagg.py, things should work. Because
PlotView is an NSImage subclass, it inherits a method named image.
pyobjc previously let you overwrite that method with a python instance
variable, but no longer, hence having to rename the instance variable.
