It seems that default backend for Windows binaries is TkAgg in Python 2.5 but WXAgg in Python 2.6 (files from matplotlib/mpl-data in eggs are different).So without WxPython (what is quite common) there is ImportError with simple "from pylab import *".
It could be solved very simply and then everything is ok including saving of png files.
