PSfrag support broken

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I published a message when I still was a non-member asking about a way of get the same functionality in Matplotlib as with gnuplot epslatex terminal. After some exhaustive research, I found in the Cookbook (http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/LaTeX_Examples#head-b255327f7b89bb0fee34c3be7d2f6966ddc72739) that I could let LaTeX render the text using the PSfrag package. However, when I tried to reproduce the example, I discovered that it didn’t work: after some more research, I stumbled upon a question in this mailing list (http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=27216075) where it became clear that, with some changes made to the output of PS files, PSfrag could not read the labels anymore.

My questions are, assuming I am not doing anythinkg wrong (only copy&paste, I promise): Is there anyone working on this? Should I file a bug somewhere? Is there anything I can do?

Thank you in advance
