Ok, further searching led to an answer for the PDF backend. The  
linewidth is hard-coded to 0.1pt.

I assume it is similar for PS, because the output looks the same when  
I use both.

Also, it seems there is an open issue on github (for the PDF case  
anyway):
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/235

For now, I will just use a solid color fill instead, and await an  
updated hatch capability!

Thanks,
Jeff
