How about copying data near longitudes 0 and 360 (or 180 E and
180 W, of course) to "ghost" zones _above_ 360 and _below_ 0?
That is, map longitude = 0-2 (or whatever) onto longitude 360-362,
and 358-360 onto (-2)-0. Then interpolate as usual; then strip
off the ghost zones before using the result.

It isn't a pretty solution, but I thought it might work...
