Totally screwed up coastline. one way running 1 1/3rd around the island,
end overlapping the start (id 10315160), one extra coastline way on the
same nodes, reversed (id 25435734), and one smaller island next to
Menorca with it's coastline reversed (id 10315187). No wonder nothing
showed up on the map, no automatic parser could have made sense out of
this mess.
Sorted.
Do not edit excessively long ways with potlatch without waiting a fair
amount of time to allow for correct up/download, or you *will* make a
mess, especially when editing coastlines.
