I saw them too.  And I didn't like them.  So I deleted them.  And guess what
I saw?

upload to: http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.4/node/25267534
got return: 410 with id 25267534
upload to: http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.4/node/25267585
got return: 410 with id 25267585
upload to: http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.4/segment/21249501
got return: 200 with id 21249501
upload to: http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.4/segment/21249499
got return: 200 with id 21249499

Deleting the nodes apparently gives 410 (Gone), so they're probably really
dead.  But the segments, there I get 200 (Ok), so they've probably still
been "visible" before.

Could it be that all these segments were still visible in the db, but we
never saw them because the referenced deleted nodes?  And that we're now
seeing them because a bug sends nodes regardless of whether they're visible
or not?

Just some thoughts,
        Gabriel.
