I split the world into 16×16 tile segments. So instead of looping the actual tiles I just have to deal with looping the segments.

The one approach I had the most success with was to not treat the world as an array of blocks (starting at 0,0 and growing outwards), but as a tree of connected chunks. Each chunk was aware of its neighbors, and lighting was calculated across chunks (so there were never any seams).
