Hmm. I do not get a reversed list of axes. This is the output of
the example code below:

[<matplotlib.axes.AxesSubplot object at 0x8d8fb4c>,

<matplotlib.axes.Axes object at 0x8f633ec>]

[<matplotlib.axes.AxesSubplot object at 0x8d8fb4c>,

<matplotlib.axes.Axes object at 0x8f633ec>]

This doesn't seem right - for me that code results in:
[<matplotlib.axes.AxesSubplot object at 0x16d7de70>,
<matplotlib.axes.Axes object at 0x1b77c890>]
[<matplotlib.axes.Axes object at 0x1b77c890>,
<matplotlib.axes.AxesSubplot object at 0x16d7de70>]

can you try explicitly swapping your axes? f.axes =
[f.axes[1],f.axes[0]] instead of the call to reverse?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "t5.py", line 13, in <module>
   f.axes = [f.axes[1],f.axes[0]]
AttributeError: can't set attribute

I've tried it with matplotlib 1.0.1 and 1.1.0. Same error message.
Python is 2.6.4.
I'm stumped ...

Sometimes installations can get mixed up. What does:

Import matplotlib
print matplotlib.__version__
print matplotlib.__file__

outputs for your v1.1.0 installation and your v1.0.1 install?

1.1.0
/home/andreas/local/python/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.pyc

This is the right place. Then I removed matplotlib/ and
installed it again. But the error stays the same.

Ciao
