The problem appears to be with a matplotlibrc file.  If I delete the 
matplotlibrc file, then I am able to plot perfectly.  Thus, it appears 
that I am unable to specify usetex from my configuration file.  Why is 
this happening?

---- ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc ----
text.usetex	: True

---- test.py ----
import matplotlib
import pylab
matplotlib.rc('text', usetex=True)
pylab.plot(range(10))
pylab.show()


Running 'python test.py' with the above matplotlibrc causes the errors 
in my original post.  Deleting matplotlibrc resolves the problem.
