This is usually caused by a mismatch in the Unicode mode of the python interpreter and the extension module.
Python can be built to use either 2-byte or 4-byte Unicode code points. If you build an extension on a Python interpreter that uses one, but use it on another, this error is the most common result. Did you build basemap using the same Python interpreter that you are using to run it?
