Bug summary
Mathtext operators (\log, \max, etc.) should insert a thin space after themselves (if followed by ordinary characters, not if followed by an open parenthesis, see https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/225922/spacing-rules-for-operatorname/225924#225924), but currently it does not.
Code for reproduction
from pylab import *
figtext(.5, .6, r"$\log 6$ (usetex)", usetex=True)
figtext(.5, .5, r"$\log 6$ (current)")
figtext(.5, .4, r"$\mathdefault{log}\,6$ (manual thin space)")
figtext(.5, .3, r"$\mathdefault{log}\ 6$ (manual full space)")
show()Actual outcome
Note the missing thin space between "g" and "6" in the current behavior.
