If you find a good solution for this requirement please post the results here.
Detailed international boundary info is pretty hard to come by. Here is one from the UN circa 1996 that has national boundaries in E00 format: http://www.grida.no/db/gis/prod/html/base_14.htm
The UN is making some noise about International GIS but I don't see anything useful yet: http://www.un.org/Depts/Cartographic/ungis/ungis.htm
Here is a good OpenGIS version that combines DCW data with a lot more: http://www2.demis.nl/mapserver/mapper.asp He had the Blue Marble data up for a while.
