OSM maps look truncated near the last tile near New Zealand and Fiji

Excuse me if this has been asked before or there's a simple explanation. I have been working on a project that overlays data over OSM which brought this truncation to my attention. It only happens on one zoom level, the default level shown on your homepage, which is a good example:

If you look, the label for New Zealand and Fiji has been truncated, which suggests the loss of some data of some description.

Just to clarify, it's zoom level 2.

It looks like the label's overlaying the 180 degree meridian:

Maybe it's related to that?

So no ideas on whether this is a bug with the maps or not?
