A week after I made the above spkg, I found what I think are the real
problems behind graphing not working.  However, as of now there is
unfortunately no good fix -- nobody knows how to get graphics for Sage
to robustly work on OS X 10.6.

If you have XCode installed, you can try something that fixes the
problem for some people (but not others!) by typing the following line
in the sage-4.1.2.whatever directory:

   ./sage -i http://wstein.org/home/wstein/patches/matplotlib-0.99.1.p1.spkg

Note that this requires XCode be installed, which comes on the OS X
10.6 DVD.  Note, moreover that this might not fix your problem at all.
