Oh, I see the bug. The reason the lines are there that you commented
out is to allow you to specify multiple font dirs in your path, as in 

  set AFMPATH = c:\somepath\fonts;e:\some\other\path\fonts

But I wasn't properly doing a platform independent path split.

The code should read

    def _get_afm_filenames(self):
        paths = [os.path.join(distutils.sysconfig.PREFIX, 'share', 'matplotlib')]
        if os.environ.has_key('AFMPATH'):
            afmpath = os.environ['AFMPATH']
            paths.extend(afmpath.split(os.pathsep))

        fnames = [fname for fname in get_recursive_filelist(paths) 
                  if fname.lower().find('.afm')>0 and
                  os.path.exists(fname)]

        return fnames


Thanks for helping me diagnose it.  Please let me know if the above
works on your system!
