Sorry, no, I don't have any specific examples.  Only that I have seen
"mysterious" issues disappear when the code was converted into one style or
the other.  This was way back in the days when I was just learning
matplotlib, so I really didn't understand what I was doing at the time.  In
any case, it was those issues that caused me to completely switch over to
the pyplot style.
