You may want to confirm that the python use use to build matplotlib is 
the intended one (in your home).  As a first try, matplotlib's setup 
will import Tkinter and grab the include paths from there.

By this I mean when you type:

    python setup.py install

that "python" is the specific python use want to use.

Also check that Tkinter imports without errors in your custom Python.

Cheers,
Mike
