Yes, I can confirm the system Python doesn't work with TkAgg and
matplotlib 1.3.x. The problem with matplotlib 1.3.x and Macports Python
is that the Tk/Tcl library used in setupext.py is hardwired to system Tk/Tcl
for Mac platform. Here is the piece of code from setupext.py:
elif sys.platform == 'darwin':
# this config section lifted directly from Imaging - thanks to
# the effbot!
# First test for a MacOSX/darwin framework install
from os.path import join, exists
framework_dirs = [
join(os.getenv('HOME'), '/Library/Frameworks'),
'/Library/Frameworks',
'/System/Library/Frameworks/',
]
Therefore matplotlib 1.3.x is compiled with system Tk/Tcl regardless which
python is used (macports or system). I have tried to hardwire the macports
Tk dynamic library but there are errors when importing matplotlib in python.
It would be great if the devs can modify the setupext.py to use macports
Tk/Tcl
libraries properly, e.g., enabling a choice for using system or macports
Tk/Tcl
libraries.

I guess I will just modify the codes in "tri" package so I can use them as
standalone modules.
Thanks.
