If you can consider running your own WMS server and you can tolerate MapServer
then you can try the instructions from
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/wiki/RenderingOsmData.  For WMS usage you can
stop after Creating the Mapfile section.  Mapserver homapage
http://mapserver.org shows an example of rendering.
