I am having trouble creating a plot using TeX which has a $ sign in
one of the axis labels.  If I run:

import matplotlib

matplotlib.rc('font', **{'family': 'serif', 'serif': ['Computer Modern Roman']})
matplotlib.rc('text', usetex=True)

import pylab

pylab.figure()
pylab.plot([0.0, 1.0])
pylab.ylabel("Profit (\$)")
pylab.savefig('/tmp/fig.pdf')


I get the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I am using Debian/unstable and have the latest texlive installed.  Can
anyone tell me what the problem might be?
