Oh... so now you tell me :-) !  This is definitely a problem.

Yes, you should do

from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg import Toolbar, FigureCanvasWx, FigureManager

The backend switching mechanisms (eg -d, matplotlib.use, matplotlibrc)
are for the matlab interface.  You are using the API directly and so
these do not apply.

Note that the toolbar and the figure manager are the same in
backend_wx and backend_wxagg (the latter just imports them directly
from the former).  So if you want to easily switch between backend_wx
or backend_wxagg (ie to test performance or use a different one if yo
encounter troubles) you can do

from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg import Toolbar, FigureManager
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg import FigureCanvasWx as FigureCanvas

Then use FigureCanvas in your code to instantiate new canvases.
Switching back to the wx canvas (native wx drawing rather than agg
drawing) is as simple as changing the one line to

from matplotlib.backends.backend_wx import FigureCanvasWx as FigureCanvas

Hope this helps,
John
