Errors opening IDLE, QtConsole, PyLab

I'm a new python user who has been struggling to get a working installation
of matplotlib before I tried Enthought. I'm on a Mac 10.7.3 trying to run
various modules after installing EPD 7.3-2 x86. When I try to run PyLab, I
get an import error: 

dlopen(/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/matplotlib-1.2.x-py2.7-macosx-10.8-intel.egg/matplotlib/backends/_macosx.so,
2): Library not loaded:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreText.framework/Versions/A/CoreText
  Referenced from:
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/matplotlib-1.2.x-py2.7-macosx-10.8-intel.egg/matplotlib/backends/_macosx.so
  Reason: image not found

I get the same error running QtConsole. I checked, and CoreText.framework
just doesn't exist in Frameworks. (I also get this error trying to import
pyplots from matplotlib.)

IDLE won't start at all; it just opens X11.

I tried first using the 32 bit version of EPD and had the same issues before
I uninstalled and tried the 64 bit version.
