I've gone back and looked a bit.  The only thing I found was that
boundary=administrative, admin_level=8 wasn't rendered; in the default
style that shows up.   I'm about to rerun a build with that.

nit to pick - it just turns out to be something I really care about, so
it seemed bigger than it was.
