I don't think this is a matplotlib bug. It is probably a KDE configuration problem specific to your system. See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-601154.html. You could try editing your backend_qt4.py, in the save_figure method, to add QFileDialog.DontUseNativeDialog to the end of the list of arguments passed to _getSaveFileName. But that is only a workaround.
