I believe the way that Sander wraps molecules based on whether the
geometric center of the molecule is outside the boundaries of the unit
cell. So if the geometric center of both DNA strands are at the edge
of the unit cell but not quite outside the boundaries, it may look
like the DNA is sticking out into nowhere. Again, this is just a
visualization artifact; the DNA strands are still interacting with
solvent on the opposite side of the unit cell.
