Comment:

 I followed
 [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses#Buildings_with_multiple_house_numbers
 this wiki advice], which says to do exactly what you say is a bad idea:

   Specify the range (e.g., "10-95"). This is the preferred method when
 such a range is
   officially used for the entire house. You may also use
 addr:interpolation=* to describe
   whether that includes odd, even or all numbers.

 This is unambiguous if addr:interpolation is also present.
 For single housenumbers containing a dash, there would no
 addr:interpolation present.
