This is similar to what you would get in TeX, so strictly taken it is
not a bug. However, in TeX you could write "some label text ($\mu V$)"
instead, which unfortunately does not work with matplotlib. A workaround
is to type r"$\rm{some\ label\ text}\ (\mu V)$", (as Christian Meesters
already wrote).
Even if this solves your immediate problem, it would be interesting to
debug it further to find the reason that usetex is not working right.

I could not find the font in your eps file. I think the ghostscript
"distilling" step may have converted the original font to pure drawing
commands. Could you repeat the test with ps.usedistiller set to None and
upload the resulting file? It may also be interesting to set
ps.usedistiller to xpdf, if you do have the required programs.

Correct: the usetex option is not yet supported by the pdf backend.
