This is probably just what it says - you seem to have a node with a tag 
value of more than 255 characters. That was ok with 0.5 but is not ok 
any more.

I suggest that you check your Data_API06.osm.bz2 file (simply running it 
through something like

bzcat Data_API06.osm.bz2 | perl -ne 'print "line $. too long\n" if 
(length($_)>250);'

and then manually shorten the tags in question before proceeding.
