Hi, making my first steps with mkgmap that, although the routing works fine in Mapsource, i get in trouble on my Gps unit Garmin gmap60csx. Very often i got these strange straight magenta routing lines in between normal routing. Meanwhile i figured out that it seems to be that t has something to do with the length of a polyline. I don't know if it is the count of points/nodes of the polyline or still the lenght or both. But comparing the same mp-file once compiled with mkgmap, once with cgpsmapper i see, that cgpsmapper split these long lines during mkgmap leave them like they are. some pictures from gps units of other guys you can see here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Mkgmap/routing#Wrong_route_calculati...
