It looks like there is an incompatibility with the freetype supplied in /sw (probably fink supplied). Perhaps it is not configured as a universal binary. You can build mpl from svn the way we do when we make a release, which will automatically fetch and build the dependencies correctly. First see, http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/installing_faq.html#which-python-for-osx then grab a copy of mpl from svn http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/installing_faq.html#install-svn and cd into the releases/osx directory and follow the instructions in the README there.
