those two properties should not have spaces in them - according the
the AFM file spec that I could find - they should be one word - which
is what matplotlib expects - and this is the source of all of the
"'Found an unknown keyword in AFM header (was Underline)" warning that
you saw.

I still find it strange that this character is even in the font file
- maybe it had a value other than just space, but copy pasting made it
appear as such? Please resend the file as an attachement so we can
verify.
In the meantime - this patch should get around trying to parse any
such files without causing tracebacks
in lib/matplotlib/afm.py, after the line that says 'if
line.startswith('Comment'): continue' add another line that says 'if
line.startswith('C 127'): continue'

If this was really the case, we should not have been seeing "Found an
unknown keyword in AFM header (was Underline)" for the afm files that
ship with matplotlib (but we were on your machine - so something
changed them).
Please diff your pagko8a.afm against
https://raw.github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/master/lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/afm/pagko8a.afm
