The problem is that the validator looks at only one of the segments to determine whether or not it is clockwise. It just checks to see if a particular pair of nodes is a certain direction away from the others. This works for perfectly round bodies of water, but not for all weird shapes. It's just broken. I rewrote this particular check.
