[Talk-us] broken state borders

[Dave Hansen]

The JOSM validator plugin calls some of the state borders
"self-intersecting ways".  That's because the ways contain the same node
multiple times consecutively:

    <nd ref='75387484' />
    <nd ref='75387489' />
    <nd ref='75387489' />
    <nd ref='75387489' />
    <nd ref='75387489' />
    <nd ref='75387493' />

I've attached an entire OSM file showing this at the NY/PA border.

Is this an isolated thing, or more widespread?
