Let's see how this does - I have tried it out on 63660006.osm and the resulting map loads into mapsource OK and is generally fine.
I have also tested this, and it worked fine (with the exception of the broken routing in the damaged area, but that is to be expected).
Thanks very much for this fix!
Well, as we know, it's a hack but if it allows the map to build and be mostly usable, it's a worthwhile hack.
I also apologise, because I thought that r1054 introduced the "croaking" feature. But if I now understand it correctly, the commit simply made the croaking more elegant. Previously mkgmap would "spew" error messages and then croak.
No need to apologise, I understood your unhappiness with how it was. But yes, it would have bombed anyway, I just made it a little more useful by reporting the bbox and then exiting without spewing out more garbage. Cheers, Mark
