New issue 1867 by asmeurer: plotting tests open Python rocket ship application in Mac OS X
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1867

Whenever I run the test suite on my Mac OS X 10.6 machine, as soon as I get to the plotting tests,
the Python rocket ship application (the one in
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/Python.app in the default Mac OS X install) starts bouncing in the Dock, and keeps bouncing until the tests complete, at which point it quits. No windows ever open, but it is really annoying nonetheless because it steals the keyboard focus whenever it happens, and if the tests run for long enough and the computer is idle, it causes the "beachball of death" to start spinning until you click on something else.

Use of the -k option reveals that this happens with any test in test_plotting.py, though the program
launches only once per test run.

Do any Linux or Windows users have this problem? I can see why it is happening, because plots open in that same rocket ship application, but it is really annoying and if it could somehow not be
opened or opened in the background, it would be great.
