I should clarify, I have this working with the TkAgg backend and "text.usetex : False". If "text.usetex : True", I can't confirm or deny whether that works since I don't have a proper LaTeX ucs.sty setup here to test with.
As an aside, if you're looking to Gtk as a way around this, the Gtk backend uses the same rendering pipeline for text when text.usetex is True, so it likely will produce the same result.
