Thanks for this tip, I'll give it a try, but I still don't see why
I have to. If RSI can wrap longitudes, they can wrap latitudes as
well.

William,
I agree with David that this looks like a programming error. Now I am
going to go and check my over the pole cases to see if I get a similiar
error!

You can check to see if the mapping environment is current with the
!x.type variable. If !x.type = 3 then map_set has been called.
