              to 0.98.5.2 => [with patch and with spkg, needs
              work] Upgrade matplotlib to 0.98.5.2

Comment:

 This needs work:

  * setupext.py.diff is not a unified diff, i.e. use -urN when diffing
  * some of the other diffs were created by diffing files in patches with
 files in src. The standard way in Sage to do this is to copy over foo from
 under source to foo.orig and then diff the changed foo against foo.orig in
 the same directory. Here also unified diff is required
  * the size issue need to be investigated, i.e. 4MB extra compressed for
 the spkg is a substantial increase in size
  * the name of the spkg should reflect the release branch it came from,
 i.e matplotlib-0.98.5.2-svnXXX

 Aside from that:
  * We need to potentially make matplotlib not look for certain things on
 OSX like ghostview since that tends to pull in crap from Fink and/or
 MacPorts.

 Cheers,

 Michael
