If you look at pngmath.py, the OSError from the first call to latex has been properly caught and the warning displayed. However, in some later call that strange error is raised. A bit of debugging shows that somehow subprocess leaves file descriptors open when the child execution fails. I'll forward that to the Python tracker. Meanwhile, it's easy to just skip trying to invoke latex or dvipng if it failed once, so I do that now.
