John,
The following code works for me (Python 2.5.4, Matplotlib 0.99):
# create and format the colorbar
cbar = pl.colorbar(G, ticks=range(g1,g2+1))
cbar.ax.set_ylabel('Gradient (%)', fontsize=10)
cl = pl.getp(cbar.ax, 'ymajorticklabels')
pl.setp(cl, fontsize=10)

> cb.ax.set_yticklabels(['%3.2g' % cl for cl in clabels],
> fontproperties=p_cax)
> cax.set_title('sensitivity\n(%s)' % units,
> fontproperties=p_cax)

> NOTE: It does set the title properties correctly.
