Change the line to either:

This is causing problems on OS X, since (on at least Python 2.4.1 on
Tiger from Python Stuff) sys.platform is 'darwin' but
sys.frozen does not exist:
sys.platform
'darwin'
sys.frozen
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'frozen'
It looks like the sys.platform check is trying to guard against this
condition, but plain Mac Python without py2app does not have
sys.frozen. I suppose it would be better to check whether sys.frozen
exists and then its truth value. Would the following change work for
everyone?

The reason I ran into this was that I installed the svn version with
"setupegg.py develop"�, and there is no mpl-data directory in
lib/matplotlib. I made a symlink to an existing mpl-data directory,
but I wonder if there is some more elegant way for matplotlib to
support setuptools' develop mode?
