There might be a missing commit.  I just noticed that a bunch of .py source
files are missing in doc/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/figures/.  This might
require cherry-picking a50874b711983cba505e which was the commit that
Michael used to restore some of the mistakes of the commits on May 6th.

I will leave it up to Darren to figure out exactly what would be the correct
course of action.

P.S. : As an interesting aside to what caused me to find this mistake...
My docs were still not building correctly, although now that the v1.0.x
branch is fixed, it didn't have the multiprocessing trick that is in
master.  Therefore, when the error occurred, a message was able to be
printed to my screen, which allows me to trace it down.

What happens is that eventually, the python debugger is fired off by
sphinx.  If possible, it would probably be wise to disable this behavior as
it makes no sense for doc-building.  What triggers the startup of pdb is
that the copying of simple_axes_divider2.py fails at line 403 of
plot_directive.py, in _plot_directive().  This failure, however, is actually
not the first error, as the first one gets swallowed by a try...finally
statement at line 230, in run_code() of the same file.

Because of the removal of the .py files as noted above, I only had .pyc
files in that directory, which lead to the build system thinking that there
was content to build.  I see these assumptions as being problematic, and
should probably be rethought in the future.
