There is something fishy client side anyway:

./tilesGen.pl --Debug=1 xy 34 21 6
reliably and quickly fails with:

[#1   0% Download] Downloading: Map data for caption...
Download
http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/node[place=town|city|country][bbox=8.437500,48.317252,19.687500,53.088028]
[#1   0% Download] No data here! (OSMXAPI)

while a wget 
http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/node[place=town|city|country][bbox=8.437500,48.317252,19.687500,53.088028]

reliably fetches *something* from the same box. The content still seems 
interesting (mind the above bbox is squarely in Europe). At least the 
above download returns this:

....
  <node id='52553622' lat='59.8500000' lon='-134.9833330' user='Jason 
Reid' osmxapi:users='Jason Reid' timestamp='2007-09-16T08:24:57Z'>^M
     <tag k='comment' v='Experimental import of Canadian places and POIs 
from GNS Dataset'/>
....

At least it *is* a place=town, but neither lat nor lon are within the 
bbox. There's tons more of stuff like this in the file.
