Is there a good trick to get polygon of Antarctica as continent (with glaciers) from OSM? I cannot find any common tag or relation for this, this seems to be set of glaciers and islands and coastline. The admin area border (from http://www.gadm.org) is nice too, but it is significantly smaller than the continent in OSM.

I'd think about the best you can do is a bounding box min_lat="-90" min_lon="-180" max_lat="-60" max_lon="180". Also read imagico's blog and related articles http://blog.imagico.de/mapping-antarctica/
