I realize that my last reply sound rude, my appologize for that.

What I means is that trouble to display Antartica data (for example) in Mercator
projection is not a Geotools problem. This is a mathematical issue.

If "displaying whole world" means displaying data at higher latitude than 85°
(or even 70° according wikipedia), user should tries an other projection.
Cylindrical Mercator (non-transverse and non-oblique) is not suitable for that.
Again this is mathematical, not a Geotools problem.
