Here is what happens when I plot your Australia data. If you look at the very end of your gml, you will see some quotation marks. I think this is where the problem is. Also, I couldn't open your shape file. Do you know of a good (and free) shapefile editor?
Edit: I putt two hard returns where I think the gap in coordinates is.

This is potentially an excellent tool for us GIS folks. When might this be released in the standard GeoServer build?
The patch to the underling GeoTools engine has now been picked up by GeoServer so, with a little more testing, I can commit the KML output for GeoServer. If all goes well it should make it into the 1.3.0 release.

If anyone is familiar with GeoServer and wants to try this on their own data let me know, installation is a bit tricky for now as I had to patch the core GeoTools GML producer to handle some of KMLs quirks (I'll write them up in another post if anyone is interested)
The latest release of GeoServer (1.3.0 RC-2) includes initial support for KML output. It is not very well tested and it is not complete as I do not have much spare time to work on this right now. However, I'd welcome comments / feedback from anyone who does try this version out.

Blast, one crucial line of text was missed from a file in the relase. As a result, although all the KML code is there GeoServer is unaware of it and refuses requests.
I'll send out patch instructions as soon as I've worked out the best way to do it.
