This is a bit of a long shot since I have no personal experience with building 
matplotlib but it may be an SDK symlink issue.  IIRC, Xcode 3.2.6, the last 
Xcode 3 release, creates a faulty directory / symlink structure within the 
10.6 SDK.  What you need to have is: 
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/Library/Frameworks containing symlinks to 
/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework and /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework because 
of the -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk on the compiler calls.  Also, 
current versions of Xcode 4 and 5 don't attempt to create a symlink at all so 
you have to do it manually.  3.2.6 does attempt to do so but gets it wrong.
