You shouldn't edit rcsetup.py directly -- that is part of the matplotlib 
source code.  Instead, you should edit the matplotlibrc settings file.

In there, you'll actually want to change two settings:

  1) Add Cambria to the front of the font.serif list
  2) Set "font.family" to "serif", so that mpl will use that list.

Hope this helps,
Mike
