Yes, Jens Mortenson pointed out it out on sphinx-dev a while back, it is 
already included in our trunk :) Georg Brandl kindly added a new option in 
svn so we can produce files with .xml file extensions instead of .html, which 
are required to render mathml.

I dont have an example yet in the matplotlib docs, but I played with it in my 
XPaXS documents, you can see it here:

There is a "show source" link on the left that shows the original ReST wource 
for the current page, here is the math markup:

:math:`sin(x_n^2)`

.. math::

   \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{e^{i\phi}}{1+x^2\frac{e^{i\phi}}{1+x^2}}

The latex file also renders the equations nicely.
