Based on my quick look at the code, it seems that the documentation is
incorrect. I believe it should be  "a tuple of rgba values", not
"sequence of rgba tuples", and I don't think it is possible to specify
color"s" using keyword arguments.

x1 = random(1000)
x2 = random(1000)

n, bins, patches = hist(np.array([x1, x2]).transpose())

plt.setp(patches[0], color="r")
plt.setp(patches[1], color="b")

p.s., Is it just me who think it is confusing that hist([x1,x2])
interprets input differently when len(x1) == len(x2) and when len(x1)
!= len(x2)?
