The ways table has node membership information. Joining the table on 
w1.nodes && w2.nodes and differing way IDs will find ways that share 
nodes. You'll need to define your requirements more precisely than this 
and use something more sophisticated, but this should get you started.

I'm not aware of any tools which import using postgis topology. You 
might be able to do what you want with pgrouting and osm2pgrouting, but 
I haven't used it myself.
