gluSphere and texture issue

I have created a sphere using the gluSphere() method and added a texture (earth map) to it. The problem is that the texture is being displayed reversed. The code below uses code from Andrew Davison's new book (Pro Java 6 3D Game Development) as a basis. I ran his sample code (from chpt 16) and had the same issue. I have searched online in various places to try and find a solution but have not had any luck. I could switch to creating the sphere manually instead of using gluSphere(), but I would rather find a solution to this. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I have not used OpenGL that much and may just be missing something important but not obvious. Thanks. Note: You can find the code for the book here

One way to fix this problem could be to just save the texture after flipping it about the axis. Although it's not a nice solution it should work
You can transform the texture coordinates into what you want via the texture matrix.
I'm not going to read the code, but the problem could just be with how the view is set up. It's easy to get stuff flipped on the way from world to window space.

And for completeness, a cheap hack is to scale the sphere by -1 in the y direction or whatever (and make sure you don't cull the wrong faces as a result).
