cairo mathtext uses a method copied from gdk/gtk and does render an image. It needs updating to render text. imshow does look different on cairo and agg, and yes, It looks like an image format problem. cairo uses ARGB32 with pre-multiplied alpha, and the ARGB order depends on whether the machine is little- of big-endian.
