#4693: Nominatim using wrong relation for county outline

 Searches for Farmville, Virginia (spans Prince Edward and Cumberland
 counties) describe it as being in Appomattox County; viewing Appomattox
 County in the Nominatim database
 ([http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=3665338557
 3665338557]) displays the same map as that of Prince Edward County
 ([http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=3665865857
 3665865857], which is correct), but it does correctly report Appomattox
 County as being represented by multipolygon relation
 [http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/2534165 2534165], and
 clicking on the link to that relation shows the correct outline for
 Appomattox County.  It doesn't appear to be bad data in the main OSM
 database (the relations and names are correct), so I guess it's a
 Nominatim bug of some sort.
