Hi all,

I have what seems to be a small error trying to reference a function in the
compiled tk backend which doesn't exist in the shared object (See stack
trace below). I'm running on a 64-bit system.

Has anyone else had this issue? Google didn't reveal a lot to me (searching
for "undefined symbol: XCreateIC" exact phrase yielded 2 results, neither
very enlightening for me.

python -c `import matplotlib; print matplotlib.__version__`:

0.99.3

To repeat this error (for me), simply run
python -c 'import pylab'
