I'm dumb... I took care of writing r"..." to test maths, but forgot the 
leading 'r' to test the accentuated characters... sorry, everything works 
like a charm !

By the way, when text.usetex is set to True, could one imagine to be able to 
use string arguments to the mpl text routines whithout that leading 'r' ?

Well, I think I won't need them, accentuated characters are enough for me, 
thanks !
