I used that and my own utf-8 filter 
<http://www.lysator.liu.se/~jonass/UTF8sanitizer.c> to create an 
XML wellformed dump: <http://www.mozoft.com/OSM/planet-2006-08-
fix2.osm.bz2>. NOTE: this dump lacks information available in the 
database, ie the broken characters. There were broken characters in 
almost 500 lines out of 45 million.
