There seems to be no clean solution because the shift is not uniform
and it seems to be different for each zoom level. In other words, the
tiles are plain wrong.
However, you can bring it closer to the satellite tiles than it is
now.

See this example:
http://maps.forum.nu/temp/gm_cairo_shift.html

Look at the function shiftLayer() which is the one that does all the
work, but note that this is not orthodox.
The function climbs the DOM tree to get hold of the correct DIV that
contains the tiles and repositions that div.

You might want to define diferent shifts for different parts of the
city, and hope that Google fixes it soon. ;-)

Pamela, wouldn't it be useful to have a "Tiles defect" template in the
issue tracker to report issues like this?
