That's fine, no hard feelings :) In any case, learning Github & Co. is 
worth it's time :)

I applied your proposed changes and pushed it out to my Osmosis fork:

https://github.com/podolsir/osmosis postgis2-compat

It currently passes all the test on the continuous integration server 
(which has pre-2.0-setup AFAIK). This is good :) Still, I'd like to be 
sure it works on 2.0 as well.

You can do a git checkout or just grab the sources from:

https://github.com/podolsir/osmosis/tarball/postgis2-compat

or even the binary version from

http://dev.openstreetmap.de:23457/hudson/job/osmosis-podolsir/10/artifact/package/distrib/tgzs/osmosis-0.40.1-127-g4999008.tgz

OK, that's good to know, could you please give a short test to my 
version nevertheless, since _I_ might have done something wrong after all :)

Once you say it works OK with your PostGIS 2 installation, I will push 
out the changes to the main Osmosis repo.
