P.S.
I have found that I can mitigate the problem by changing the axes: changing,
ax = pylab.axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
to
ax = pylab.axes([0.2, 0.2, 0.6, 0.6])
shrinks almost everything towards the center, meaning that some things no
longer get cut off.
(But this is at the expense of a smaller overall picture, that isn't doing
quite the same job graphically.)
This offers a partial workaround, but it's nowhere near so good as it would
be to move the labels inward so they don't get cut off (while keeping the
pie graph at a preferred size for the graph itself).
