py34-matplotlib: error: ‘kCTForegroundColorFromContextAttributeName’ undeclared

[RivetBenoit (Benoit Rivet)]

The following lines in the log may be relevant to understand the bug :

This may be specific to Mac OS X.5 PPC : the upgrade went smoothly on another Mac running Mac OS X.10.

Has duplicate #49617.

If someone figures out a patch to fix this, I will work with you to get it into MacPorts (and reopen this ticket) but upstream has made it clear they are no longer fixing bugs for old architectures.

This problem also occurs with py27-matplotlib. The attached patch allows me to build py27-matplotlib on OS X 10.5 PPC. I have not tried it on py34-matplotlib, but I expect it would work. This patch is taken from a fix for the same problem in graphviz ​http://www.graphviz.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=2405, contributed by ryandesign!
