Coastlines (and the "inverse islands" issues) have been onging for ages 
for the mkgmap produced garmin files. There's a --generate-sea switch 
for mkgmap that sometimes works fine, other times, not so good. It's hit 
and miss enough that I've mever enabled it for the maps I generate

Problem seems to come from a few different things - non-closed coasline 
polygons, coastline direction changes, points where rivers join 
sea/coastline etc.

There's a lot of chat on the mkg-map dev list over the last 6 months or 
so regarding this
