Polygon Fill broken at North and South Poles

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which products are affected?

Both OpenGL and DirectX versions of current Google Earth.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. See attached kml.

What is the expected output or behavior? What do you see instead?

Polygon fills should fill the entire area of the polygon. When drawing a 
polygon around either of the poles, the polygon fill does not get drawn 
correctly (i.e. at all). NOTE: This may be related to Issue #227.

What application versions (if any) are you using?

Google Earth
4.3.7284.3916 (beta)

Which operating systems and browsers are affected?
N/A
