z<=12 is re-rendered monthly or after style updates or based on manual 
tile expiry.  But this won't do you any good since any change in 
coastline tagging of larger lakes will stall coastline processing and 
the data won't be updated even if you re-render the tiles.

So edit wars with coastline tagging of lakes are pretty pointless as far 
as the standard map on openstreetmap.org is concerned - they just 
prevent any other coastline changes from turning up in the map.  If you 
want to change coastline tagging of the Russian lakes you should 
discuss this with the Russian community instead of simply changing it.
