You could try ftp://currents.soest.hawaii.edu/pub/outgoing/matplotlib-0.98.6svn.tar.gz which I made from my svn trunk checkout using "python setup.py sdist". No guarantees. It is huge; it must have a lot of files that are not in the standard *.tar.gz. I won't leave it there for more than a day or two, so if you want to try it, grab it now. We would like to have buildbots making and posting daily svn packages, but we aren't there yet.
