Use
OSM -> Xalan -> SVG -> Batik -> PNG

This works wonderfull here:

wget -O data.osm http://mapURLfromOSM

java -cp ../Distributed-renderer/xalan-j_2_7_0/xalan.jar
org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -in osm-map-features.xml -out temp.svg

java -jar ../Distributed-renderer/batik-1.6/batik-rasterizer.jar -d out.png

imageview out.png


This produces a transparent png.
