Hi Andrzej,

ah, yes, that one shows the problem.
The additional cycle way is added with a different (OSM) id (osm id incremented by CYCLEWAY_ID_OFFSET (0x10000000)).
Therefore all points of the original way appear on two different roads,
all highway counts are incremented and thus the obsolete point
is no longer considered obsolete.

I see two simple fixes:
1) don't increment the id
2) consider two way ids as identical when they differ by CYCLEWAY_ID_OFFSET and follow each other.

I don't know why the offset was added, so I don't dare to remove it.
Attached is a patch for the 2nd approach.

@Steve: svn blame says the code with the CYCLEWAY_ID_OFFSET was added by you.
Please check if that is (still) needed, I think it was just added to be able to identify these special ways
when debugging?
