Ah, I guess that makes sense given how destructors are handled 
differently on Python 3. I have some thoughts on this that I might put 
into a PR. I don't have access to a Windows box at the moment, so I may 
need some help testing.

PR798 works for Python 2.7. But under Python 3.2 the tests are still 
running out of file handles. Manually increasing the open files limit 
helps (only one test fails).

I don't think we have a timeframe on that yet. Getting out a solid, 
stable 1.1.1 (without Py3k support) I think is a higher priority right now.

To get this going, perhaps I'll go ahead and make a branch off of master 
for 1.2.x and we could start testing it on all the platforms and see how 
far it feels from releasable state. There are few PRs in the queue that 
are simple yet critical that should get in there first.

That looks like the same issue we were having on the 1.1.x branch -- 
that it's running out of file handles -- that I thought was fixed by 
this PR:
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/798
Or are we seeing something else here?
