I investigated a bit more, it seems that cover is wrong.

In a bullseye chroot it works

$ python3 ./test.py 
(bullseye_mips64el-dchroot)picca@eller:~/matplotlib-3.5.0/build/lib.linux-mips64-3.9$
 ls
matplotlib  mpl_toolkits  pylab.py  test.py  toto.png

I found that the test failed between the 3.3.4-2 and 3.3.4-2+b1 rebuild

This binNMU was about python3.10 support, but in the same time numpy has changed
from 

 python3-numpy (= 1:1.19.5-1),

to

 python3-numpy (= 1:1.21.4-2),

I think that there is a non negligeable possibility for this bug to be 
triggered by the new numpy.
