Unfortunately handing OSM data with too strict rules usually means a lot of
it has to be disregarded. Just look at multipolygons Wiki page to see how
many exceptions are allowed because people map things differently. So given
that OSM Mapnik integration doesn't treat this as an error (it displays the
names of both the "parent" multipolygon and of its "children"), I will
ignore the relation member rather than rejecting the whole thing.
