that could be a case of  copy/paste indeed, the road was amongst many
others created in the same change set, which also contains many
deletions.

  http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/10345339

The user to blame would be "CeesW" then, not "It's so funny" though,
as you can see in the streets change history:

  http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/144917597/history

  http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/144917602/history

"It's so funny" only changed the highway type of the west half
of the street from "residential" to "unclassified", which is
a strange thing to do for a road like that, but not a license
violation for sure.

Whether the change set #10345339 and other ODBL related ones
from CeesW are indeed copy&paste changes or actual remappings
would require a comparison of data pre and post Jan 9, 2011
for which i don't have the tools at hand ...
