Apparently I was over-optimistic about using the gpx file to create a route.

The Garmin MapSource program doesn't handle the Heysen Trail gpx data 
very well.  It has the route jumping huge distances between far away 
nodes and back again in places.

And it doesn't seem to be able to use the nodes in my OSM download of 
the HHWT route relation at all.

I'm having similar problems with the Linux QLandkarteGT program.

The odd thing to my mind is that JOSM seems to have no problem working 
out what the route is - from either data source.

I'm out of my depth with this at the moment.
