I just had an epiphany and figured out what is causing this. It looks like
that any example that uses the "if __name__ == '__main__' :" idiom is
failing to produce an image. Some others that have the same issue are:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/sankey_demo.html
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/hinton_demo.html
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/logo2.html (it has a link,
but no image on the page)
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/misc/multiprocess.html
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/arrow_demo.html
and many others (can be found by grepping for "__main__" in the examples
folder).
On a local build of the docs from master, axes_grid has two demos that also
fail to produce images for the docs. They look to be new demos.
I wonder if this is being caused (or at least the errors hidden by) the new
multiprocessing approach for the doc-build. Anybody have any thoughts on
how to deal with this? I consider this a release-stopper.
