There should be no circles around the colorbar.
See code here: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/6234558
Linux twiddles 3.2.0-51-generic-pae #77-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 24 20:40:32 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux 1.1.1rc Obtained using apt-get
Confirmed in a more recent version as well.
The issue is that for reasons that are not clear to me, the outline box of the color bar is drawn with a Line2D object ( https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/blob/master/lib/matplotlib/colorbar.py#L418 ) which should respect the rcparam set here.
I suspect the fix will be to change the outline to be a rectangle patch.
@eyurtsev as a side comment, can you paste the relevant code into the issue text in the future?
It will have to be a polygon, not a rectangle; it's not always rectangular.
changed colorbar outline from a Line2D object to a Polygon object
