[matplotlib-devel] master macosx backend broken?

[Eric F. <ef...@ha...>]

When I build mpl from master on python.org python 2.7, Mountain Lion, 
and try to plot anything with the macosx backend, I am now getting an 
Apple crash--the plot window flashes up and vanishes, and a big OS X 
crash report window pops up.  Ipython shows "Trace/BPT trap: 5".  I have 
never seen anything like this before.  Building from 1.3.0 works fine.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Master is also broken, at least on my machine, with other backends.  The 
suggested fix is https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/2431.
