Tyler, that seems really a bad issue. Even if the functionality of the map is
not
affected by this shift, it's really annoying having that shift at a close
zoom of
an area.
Many have told me that it's impossible to put anywhere an offset to
compensate
the shift. I thought I could tamper with the Google projection defiinition
(ESPG:900913)
in the "espg" file, but I really don't know how and if it is possible.

Thanks a lot for your (and other) answers.
