Yep, you're right - I'd forgotten about that. You'll need to use the
matplotlib git repository :s Backend "gtk3cairo" has been in there for
9 months, so I imagine it will be in the next stable release, but it
does bring a couple of oddities, at last on this machine. Nothing
dramatic user-facing, just a few errors here and there. Have CCd the
list to make a record.
