True, but I am trying to figure out if it is a bad file, bad osmosis,
bad windows, or something else.

Is it one specific file, or several files? One day, or many days?

Is it always 10,600,000:

   For different windows users on the same file?
   For different geofabrik extracts from the same region, but extracts
on different days?
   For geofabrik extracts of different regions, but on the same day?

Maybe something with java? Internationalization differences on
windows? Any interesting strings in nodes 10,600,000-10,604,000?

Did the bug reports start around this time? What if you revert back?

I'm trying to figure out what changed. It worked before, and isn't now.....
