sorry.
As guillaume has mentioned, you need to install mpl from svn.
Here is some workaround you can try. I guess it would work with 0.98.5.3.
Basically, you create a separate axes for a legend.
ax1 = axes([0.1, 0.2,0.8, 0.7])
p1, = ax1.plot([1,2,3])
p2, = ax1.plot([3,2,1])
ax2 = axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.01], frameon=False)
ax2.xaxis.set_visible(False)
ax2.yaxis.set_visible(False)
l = ax2.legend([p1, p2], ["Legend1", "Legend2"], mode="expand", ncol=2,
borderaxespad=0.)
