I tried to use that script as is but I get an error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function getCmdOpt() in
/home/ctalaba/osm/gazetteer/util.update.php on line 20

I couldn't find where this function is defined, so I will just use part of
the code (the indexing part) as a base for my own script. I will probably
get back on this list with the result, hopefully it will be helpful for
somebody else.

Thanks,
Ciprian
