That looks like what I got prior to Tom's fix. Are you sure you are
running the latest SVN version of Mapnik?

I ran your script against the main Tile Postgres DB and got the result: 

http://b.tile.openstreetmap.org/direct/karlsruhe.png


The only change I made was to adjust the projection line to match the
"osm2pgsql -m" projection

prj = Projection("+proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0
+lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0 +k=1.0 +units=m +nadgrids=@null +no_defs
+over");

Either you've still got a problem with Mapnik or there is some bad
interaction with the latest osm2pgsql code. The main tile DB was
imported using a version built a couple of weeks ago which does not have
Kleptog's latest changes.
