Research direction
Reproduce the issue from debug/index.html#5.12/84.48/62.69/0/85 in Chrome, then call map.setProjection('globe') and zoom during the globe/Mercator transition. Trace the projection and rendering path responsible for the poles; done means the transition no longer displays white poles.
