That I don't know, but if you're curious, here's the same area in my
slightly customized mapnik render (modified to understand
foot/bicycle/horse=designated, and to render paths on top of roads, and
with a catchall rule for any paths which have no designation.)
http://web.hawkesnest.net/osm.html?lat=44.53762&lon=-89.56218&zoom=16&layers=B

and in osmarender:
http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=44.53753819714547&lon=-89.56241392105782&zoom=16&layers=B000F000F

I tried using generate_image.py to create an image of the same area, but
it just showed up blank grey...
