Changes (by lonvia):

  * status:  new => closed
  * resolution:  => fixed


Comment:

 Nominatim has an evil hack to allow finding US states that abbreviate to
 common articles. Restricted the hack now to cases where IL/LA/AL are
 properly separated with commas. That should fix the issue except for a few
 minor edge cases.
