You can get weird map lines in some projections when fast rendering is turned 
on.
I don't have any problems in displaying maps in a GFS global projection. Try 
viewing the attached bundles and see if you are having problems or send us a 
bundle that demonstrates the problem.  

Maybe this is still an issue with the graphics card.
