The only way to get mapnik to look right is to change your natural=coastline arm to a large natural=water area. This will cause Mapnik to render it properly, however, it will still merge in the crummy PGS data, which you will see around the edges of your water area where it does not match.
England's coastline has been polygoned (filled in with blue), but
whoever did ended at the Scottish border (probably just as well, the
coastline up here is very complex).
