#5140: Search for postalcode 04457 delivers non existing result

 Keywords:  postal code  |
-------------------------+-------------------------
 The query for the postalcode "04457"
 (http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?postalcode=04457) results
 in two adresses:
 "Mölkau, Zweinaundorf, Leipzig, Sachsen, 04457, Deutschland, European
 Union" and
 "Lincoln, Piscataquis, Maine, 04457, United States of America" but the
 result in germany actually has the postalcode 04316.
 Furthermore querys for streets in this german region deliver wrong
 postcodes for the addresses. For example the query
 (http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=Paul-Kl%C3%B6psch-
 Stra%C3%9Fe)delivers "Paul-Klöpsch-Straße, Holzhausen, Zweinaundorf,
 Leipzig, Sachsen, 04288, Deutschland, Europäische Union" but the postal
 code should be 04316.
