OK, so I'm making progress. If you look at the test link right now you'll see that in Chrome the arrows stay where they need to be pretty consistent whatever zoom level you are at. Safari still looses the entire SVG graphic past a certain zoom level. Even normal Google InfoWindow instances have this problem, as you can see at the test website with the last marker (zoom out a little to see it).
Judging on this I'm thinking there is actually a bug in Google Maps right now. Can someone else confirm that the InfoWindow itself (not the shadow) disappears after a certain zoom level (somewhere after the middle level)? Like in this screenshot: http://cl.ly/3F2M0B021s3D0a0p0b1N Any help on this appreciated. I'm going to put a bug report in Google Maps issue tracker in a moment.
