Bug fixed in repo github.com/friedrichromstedt/matplotlib:trunk
A pull by astraw if possible would be great, I don't want to merge in
the trunk from astraw all the time, according to numpy-discussion this
will generate messy structure once we switched to GitHub :-)
UNTESTED, LittleBigBrain (how's your real name?), can you please fetch
from that repo and run the test suite, I have to work for numpy 10.5
Installers.
Your tests provided by you pass now. But it might break other things
if I had bad luck.
Alternatively I can provide the diff, if someone tells me how to do
that. First awaiting LittleBigBrain's test results.
