#5237: Wrong Postal Code Asignment

 The query "30150,Murcia" in OpenStreetMap Nominatim gives a wrong answer,
 situating it in "Guadalupe de Maciascoque" instead of "La Alberca de las
 Torres", some kilometers to south east.
 This is due to the fact that id=98284169 (30150, Type:place:postcode,
 Center Point: 37.9968697, -1.1802832) has as parent id=313397672
 (Guadalupe de Maciascoque, Type:place:suburb) and as such, affects to it
 and to a set of other ids of which id=313397672 is also Parent,
 propagating the wrong postal code also to these ids.
 It appears that interrogating the OSM database through JOSM (under ubuntu
 14.??) reveals that the Postal Code Node id=98284169 has been deleted!
 It seems that this is not the case in OpenStreetMap Nominatim, where it
 still cause this problem
