Yes, that function was on the next line after the part you quoted. :-)
It calls matplotlib.use with warn=False, but that function ends up doing
nothing.

That sounds complicated. How about having the test cases call savefig
with all the relevant file formats? That doesn't look so nice if the
test cases end up with a big block of savefig calls, but it has the
advantage that there is no magic involved and it is very obvious what is
going on.
