Comment(by jhpalmieri):
Here's a new patch using leif's less funny version. It also does not set
MPLCONFIGDIR if the file {{{matplotlib/__init__.py}}} is not found, partly
because I don't want to have to create $DOT_SAGE/matplotlib early in the
installation process. One small drawback to the current approach is that
perhaps during an upgrade from a version of Sage using matplotlib-0.99 to
a version using matplotlib-1.0.0, the directory $DOT_SAGE/matplotlib-0.99
will be created first but will remain empty and will never be used. But I
seem to have various subdirectories in $DOT_SAGE which I never pay
attention to, so having one more doesn't seem like a big deal.
