I don't suspect another distro will make a difference.  The bug is in 
matplotlib's Cairo backend (it's interface to Cairo), not in Cairo 
itself.  Change your backend to PDF and you can avoid this bug.  In the 
meantime, we'll need to fix the Cairo backend in matplotlib.  Sorry I 
wasn't clearer the first time.

Cheers,
Mike
