It looks like your canvas width and height are really large if I am
reading your traceback properly -- are you sure your figure size and
dpi params are set right? It would help immensely if you can come up
with a stand-alone script that exposes the bug. If you can, report it
to the sourceforge bug tracker, along with the output of
--verbose-helpful and your rc file if it is customized and we can
probably track it down.
Absent a script which produces the bug, it is very hard to fix these
problems, even with the nice tracebacks you've provided. Because many
people use mpl 0.80 on windows XP and haven't reported this problem, I
wonder if there is a bug in the script you are using or in your
configuration file.
Thanks,
