Looks familiar, Michael? :-) It seems there are some matplotlib users we might have scared away without noticing by this ugly bug we're hopefully tracking down now :-) Although this email dates back to June. I updated my OS X roughly every two weeks that time (from the Install logs of System Preferences). Notably the google link I sent before (http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/2c538915abc99946) dates back to Sep 2009, so the problem seems to be around since then. FYI again, to save you searching on your own.
