Matplotlib broken with VSCode 1.37.0 update

[benjaminpaik]

After installing the 1.37.0 update, any python scripts that use matplotlib for graphing will no longer run in debug (I am using Anaconda3 with VSCode). I've pasted the resulting terminal output below. Reverting to VSCode 1.36.1 resolves the issue, and scripts run as expected.
