I just saw a similar error when trying to plot some text; in my case,
basemap wasn't involved.

The full error dump:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/text.py
in draw(self, renderer)
    486
--> 487         for line, wh, x, y in info:
    488             x = x + posx
    489             y = y + posy

TypeError: CXX : Error creating object of type N2Py3IntE

My x data were times in seconds calculated relative to a reference
date, and reducing the gap cleared up my problem.

This thread:
http://markmail.org/message/zqfgrshmq3366mtz?q=Error+N2Py3IntE
suggests that the error is due to an overflow in the underlying numerics.

And ... this is where I reach the end of my expertise.
