ortho projection w/ limits crashes

Basemap documentation states that ortho projection can take ll/ur crnr limits. The following code seems like it should work (mpl 1.4.0), but does not:

from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
m = Basemap(projection='ortho',lon_0=0,lat_0=0,llcrnrlat=-10,llcrnrlon=-10,urcrnrlat=10,urcrnrlon=10)

Error:

Reproduce el ejemplo documentado del constructor de Basemap con la proyección ortho y los límites de esquina proporcionados. Comienza en el punto de entrada _getmapboundary mostrado en el traceback y, a continuación, sigue cómo la proyección inicializa sus dimensiones. Se considera terminado cuando el ejemplo se completa sin el AttributeError indicado.
