Thanks for the explanation. The TeX install I have is the stock one with RHEL4, which is fairly old at this point. I've had a number of other problems with it as well (such as it not being compatible with Sphinx).
It's nice to know that matplotlib is at least handling this situation without crashing. I think this solution (to warn) is adequate, especially given that most newer TeX distributions shouldn't have this issue. Mike Jouni K.
