Aha! Even without the text, i.e. setting label1On = False for all the major
ticks, the behaviour I see is that with bbox_inches = 'tight' and pad_inches =
0.0 I get the saved figure which includes the black border line for the bottom
and left edges, but not the top and right edges. This may have something to do
with it. Maybe it's an issue with the bounding box not being 'inclusive' and
leaving out the end points?
