Alright, I've tracked down the source of these two errors. Sphinx can not
create tables in latex that have cells spanning multiple rows or multiple
columns. Maybe it is a limitation of latex, I'm not sure, I don't have my
latex books handy. But it looks like tables with row- or column-spanning
cells are henceforth verboten.
I've updated pyplot_api.rst in svn so it is basically empty and will not cause
anyone trouble while I fix the broken tables.

I tracked this down by checking the contents of the generated
build/latex/Matplotlib.tex, line 954. It is from the following code from
mathtext.rst:

I'm not sure this is being properly rendered in the HTML output for me,
either. Mike, are you able to compile this into a pdf on your machine, and if
so, would you tell us how to configure STIX support? I commented this block
out in svn for now.
Cheers,
Darren
