Bug summary

After clear()ing an Axes, custom axislabel or ticklabel sizes persist.

Code for reproduction

from pylab import *
ax = gca(); ax.set_xlabel("foo", size=16); ax.tick_params(labelsize=16); ax.clear(); ax.set_xlabel("foo")

Actual outcome

Expected outcome

The axislabel and ticklabels revert to the default size. (I think that's a saner behavior? Otherwise we should properly document what clear() resets and what it doesn't.)
