I have identified and repaired the root cause for the bug. Apparently, the units library always generates xlabel and ylabel -- and these, in turn, are undefined for polar axes. In fact, I believe that both are meaningless and useless. I modified their styles such that they will be displayed inside of the circle, and I added "use units=false" for every polar axis (which appears to be as useless as labels). This should repair the problem; at least until it becomes clear how these two features are supposed to interact.
Thanks for the report.
