The definition of scatter marker via (numsides,style,angle) has been changed in [this pull](https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/400). Now the angle should be specified in degrees, as opposed to radians in the earlier version.
This breaks backward-compatibility and should be noted explicitly in [the docstring here](https://github.com/mdboom/matplotlib/blob/243d78daa264a1e02b3f6e147f8b1c9962652bb7/lib/matplotlib/markers.py#L51).
