As a work around, you can change your style files to always draw
coastline if there is a conflict. For example, you could place a line
such as the following at the top of your lines file:

natural=coastline & boundary=* [0x15 resolution 12]

(Which is what I do.) This will have the effect that all coastline
will be added, but boundaries which share the coastline will be
dropped.

I assume that the new changes in the Style branch will offer a more
elegant solution, allowing both to be added.

Cheers.
