I was able to replicate the bug and find the source of the problem.  I
am not 100% sure how to fix it, but someone who knows os.stat better
might.  The problem is that matplotlib.cbook.get_realpath_and_stat

class GetRealpathAndStat:
    def __init__(self):
        self._cache = {}

    def __call__(self, path):
        result = self._cache.get(path)
        if result is None:
            realpath = os.path.realpath(path)
            stat = os.stat(realpath)
            stat_key = (stat.st_ino, stat.st_dev)
            result = realpath, stat_key
            self._cache[path] = result
        return result
get_realpath_and_stat = GetRealpathAndStat()


is returning the same stat ino and dev for all the font files, and
thus the renderer.used_characters dictionary is getting improper keys
-- always (0,0).  So the first font in the gate, in this case Vera, is
getting a place in the dict and subsequent fonts (the cm* ones) are
not.  The basic problem is that the inode and dev appear to be unix
only.

Michael: if you let me know better what this key is supposed to be
doing (can we not simply use the filename for windows?) then I can
attempt or test some fixes.
