Comment:

 Well, since this is a public server, I can answer the questions myself:
 1) The maximum extent of the layer as advertised in GetCapabilities is
 -180.0,-86.63,180.0,90.0
 2) The request that OpenLayers sends is correct. The modified url raises
 an exception ("org.geoserver.platform.ServiceException: illegal bbox,
 minX: 1.6731556455300998E7 is greater than maxX: 1189768.3702969998").

 Especially 2) makes me think that this issue should be fixed on the
 GeoServer side. The only other option would be to split the map extent at
 the dateline and send two GetFeatureInfo requests.

 I'm leaving this ticket open. @scaddenp, please report any progress here
 and close when resolved.
