When I hit 'print' button, I get a partially painted dialog. Screenshot
attached. This is repeatable on 2 different machines.

I am on Fedora 12. Where is print button in matplotlib? You meant the save
dialog? If that's the case I don't see any problem using the svn version
of mpl.

I build sources manually ->
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/installing_faq.html#install-from-svn

Similarly I build numpy and scipy from sources too. If available I use
easy_install for some packages, otherwise mostly manual builds. (Except
the Python itself.) This might be confusing since I use the package
manager to install dependencies most of the time. Once in a while I see
some packages requiring older numpy builds, also when I try to uninstall
some packages via package manager it tries to uninstall more packages (the
critical ones) than what is installed. Not always required but manual
builds give more control and easy to manage on some occurrences like in
matplotlib build case.

Yes, I meant the 'save' button in the upper right.

It used to work, but some update seems to have broken it. Strange, so far
the only application that shows a problem like this (and I do use a lot of
different apps!)

Do you get any error messages behind the scenes? Does it work when you save the plot using savefig? Is it same with different backends? I am on GNOME. You seem to like using KDE, right?
