matplotlib.conf is used at build time, so you can ignore it with the
binary installer.

By the way, on windows you can edit the rc file in place (ie leave it
in mpl-data).  I need to update the instructions in that file -- they
are out of date.

This is weird: it is working on my end once I update my "backend"
setting to "TkAgg".  After running the 0.98 installer do you have
pylab.py in site-packages?  Make sure you remove all matplotlib traces
from site-packages before installing.
