Thanks Darren.  type1cm got installed on the fly by miktex the first
time I ran this, but that must not have taken effect fast enough or
something.  The miktex package manager now shows it as installed and
deleting my matplotlib tex.cache and ttfont.cache and re-running my
test leads to the usual, beautiful results (without changing the
default fonts).

Thank again,

Ryan
