Can you provide a gdb backtrace? Run "gdb python", then at the gdb prompt type "run -c 'import pylab; pylab.clf(); pylab.plot(pylab.sin(range(101))); pylab.xlabel("Test X"); pylab.ylabel("Test Y"); pylab.show()'". After it segfaults, type "bt" to get a backtrace, and copy-and-paste it to this list.
