Some of us are building wheels for the travis linux machines too - see for
example:
https://github.com/matthew-brett/nipy/blob/12f96d576be0b7c841a65b095ae0b70a22b36d2b/.travis.yml#L20
That gives me the latest released version of matplotlib. The wheels are
pretty easy to build too, just create a vagrant virtual machine, and you're
ready to go:
