As I mentioned in a previous email last night, I have built an installer for matplotlib (updated this afternoon) off the SVN trunk. You are welcome to use it, however be aware that maplotlib does not support Python 2.6 (and won't until after Numpy officially supports Python 2.6) and there are some known issues - one of which is that I can't get Tkinter to work properly when using plot.show(). As a work around I strongly suggest installing WxPython and using that as the default backend. If you do chose to use this installer please know that it is unsupported and you are on your own if something breaks.
