I ran into some failures while trying to build the docs from master. Here is one, illustrated via running an example directly.
efiring@...340...:~/programs/py/mpl/matplotlib/doc$ python /home/efiring/programs/py/mpl/matplotlib/doc/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/figures/demo_parasite_axes.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
