[Matplotlib-users] Error after upgrading Matplotlib and wxPython from a very old project

[C M]

I had both Matplotlib and wxPython working well together from a 10+ yr old
project, but recently upgraded both. I had Matplotlib 1.1.3, I believe, and
wxPython 3.0 or so and I now have wxPython Phoenix (4.1.0), Matplotlib
2.2.5, and Python 2.7 (though I may upgrade to 3.9, just want to get this
all working first). What had been working fine stopped working now.

The issue is demonstrated in the pasted/attached small runnable sample.
It's an issue with the self._update_label_position function. The error I
get is:
TypeError: _update_label_position() takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given)

What has changed with Matplotlib that is causing this and how can I fix it?
