Workaround
use the drawing toolbar tools to create a polygon graphic that corresponds to the area outside of the clipped extent. You can draw a large rectangle that is roughly the size of the unclipped dataframe, and a second polygon the corresponds to the clipped shape. Then use the Drawing >> Graphics Operations >> Remove overlap command. The resulting graphic will act as a labeling barrier and will prevent labels from being placed on the boundary and should eliminate the partial label problem.
