You're right, the hex map generator is off beat.

size=1
topology=8 (hex flat earth)
generator=1

...gives a map with no south pole and two times depth north pole. The 
climate zones appear out of sync too: the dry zone is too far south.

The map is 22 moves wide and 44 moves tall (counted by hand in hex2t). 
A torus world (topology=11) appear to have the dimensions 22 x 46 (I 
might have miscounted).
