Hello!
When trying to make a simple map of Europe with countries drawn, one can 
see that coastlines and country borders are not consistent.
Borders between Finland-Russia, Sweden-Norway, Germany-Denmark finish 
somewhere in the sea, to name just a few. Is this a known issue and is 
there a solution (coming at least)?

Simple script, little zooming will help to see better.

Best regards,
Andres

Simple script:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import numpy as np
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
m=Basemap(llcrnrlon=-18.7,llcrnrlat=44.0,urcrnrlon=59.,urcrnrlat=63.2,
          projection='lcc',lat_0=60,lon_0=0.,
          resolution ='i',area_thresh=1000.)
fig=plt.Figure()
m.drawcoastlines()
m.drawcountries()
plt.show()
