You shouldn't need to do this. Note in matplotlib.__init__.py, it looks
at a different folder if it is frozen by py2exe or py2app or ...:
# py2exe zips pure python, so still need special check
if getattr(sys,'frozen',None):
path = os.path.join(os.path.split(sys.path[0])[0], 'matplotlibdata')
So, if you use the sample setup.py I posted a while ago here and on the
wxPython list it will create the matplotlibdata folder in your
distribution (basically a copy of your mpl-data folder) folder.

Hope the wall wasn't to hard, I always try this or the wxPython list
after a day or two ;-) .
See you
