I struggled the past few days with the same problem,
and with the help of Werner Bruhin (wxPython list) I found a solution.
I had 2 problems:
- not finding mpl datapath
- matplotlib insisted on installing backends that were distorted on my
system
The first problem was solved with the following script:
it has some special parts
- remove the distro and build directories before running setup
- a special matplot part, ensuring mpl-data is copied and installed
- a lot of excludes for matplotlib ( which doesn't seem to work :-( )

Thé essential issue is not to use pylab to do the imports for you,
but perform your own imports,
this might be a lot of work: in my case the import looks like this
(I don't include numerix, because I use numpy),
so in my program to distribute, I use this :
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('WXAgg')
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg \
import Toolbar, FigureManager
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg \
import FigureCanvasWxAgg as FigureCanvas
from matplotlib import rcParams, mlab, cm
from matplotlib.mlab import meshgrid
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from matplotlib.axes import Subplot
hope this might help you somewhat,
cheers,
Stef
