I just tried the patch by Mike Droettboom.

It indeed does show a warning if I run python in the 'normal python
console.

But if I run a file like the one below, I don't get any output nor a warning.
matplotlib in this way does seem to be broken if the default install doens't 
produce output for any of the simple examples in the tutorials. An indication 
what to fix would be less bad, but I feel that the default install should 'just 
work'.

#!/usr/bin/python
import pylab
pylab.plot(range(10), [i*i for i in range(10)])
pylab.show()
