I think this is a bug in the layer beneath mpl, so neither user nor
matplotlib error.  I'm not at all an IBM cluster expert, I'm not even
a user.

All,
Can anyone tell if he should upgrade maybe distutils or setuptools?  I
don't remember which did what ...

John,
Did you compile numpy yourself?  I strongly believe you did.  In that
case, did the linkage instructions work for that properly?  If yes,
then I might be proven wrong.

Did the commands for compilation (those which creates e.g.
cxx_extensions.o) use xlC_r too?
