No. It's just used for the documentation.  With the attached patch, 
the dependency chain is this:

matplotlib -> numpy -> matplotlib-bootstrap -> numpy-bootstrap 
(=“numpy-without-docs”)

I've added a comment and fixed some long lines.

Subject: [PATCH] gnu: python-matplotlib: Don't propagate
 python-numpy-bootstrap.

* gnu/packages/python.scm 
(python-matplotlib-bootstrap,python2-matplotlib-bootstrap):
  New variables.
  (python-matplotlib, python2-matplotlib) [propagated-inputs]: Use
  python-numpy instead of python-numpy-bootstrap.
  (python-numpy, python2-numpy) [propagated-inputs,native-inputs]: Replace
  matplotlib by native inputs matplotlib-bootstrap.
