Yes, it does, thanks (checked with Metacarta "up-to-date").

I'm curious: how did you find out that the way overlaps? I checked
every node by dragging it but couldn't notice the overlap neither in
Potlatch nor with JOSM (where I haven't loaded your edit yet, so I
could still see my mistake and learn from it).

Did you mean the "More" button in the Edit History window in Potlatch?
So you checked the node *numbers* manually?
