The machine is dedicated for this purpose right now so no worrys
about traffic, crashing it or making excessive load. The above is
hot-cache without an update running - database currently gets
feeded minutely diffs with osmosis.

The (un)escaping of UTF-8 characters still doesnt work and i have
no clue how this works so need help here ... xmllint complains about
the resulting osm files with >128 ascii chars are in there - And most likely
some &>< escaping might be missing.

The perl cgi script for downloading is here:

the sql_for_area stolen from osm2ai still throws errors because of undefined
vars - most likely because i am by default coding with strict and -w.
