This is a bit of a surprise. Sounds like it could have something to do with
matplotlib's build, or that of some of its dependencies, so may need
reporting to Gentoo once we've dug a little further. It could be a really
tricky one to diagnose without being able to reproduce locally, but - is
the loop significant? Does the number of figures matter? Essentially, try
to boil it down to as little code as possible (do you need to produce a
line plot to reproduce etc.).
Cheers,
