SHP files has a restriction on them regarding the direction of polygon border lines. So converting to first SHP file and then back again, may ensure that all directions are the same. Outside borders are clockwise and holes are anti-clockwise (or the opposite - I can't remember right now and I don't have the documentation here). So perhaps a shifted line style could work.
