It's always been the case that names sometimes get rendered for objects 
that haven't been rendered, because the names are produced by separate 
rendering rules and trying to attach to those rules a set of filters 
which match the set of objects which are rendered is more or less 
impossible.

It's a bug in the mapnik stylesheet basically, but not one which is very 
to fix.
