[Tilesathome] Large Maplint files in USA

There's a bulk import happening of data in Massachusetts, USA, and
Maplint is flagging every single node with not-in-map-features because
of the "attribution" tag applied to these nodes (see
http://server.tah.openstreetmap.org/Browse/?layer=maplint&z=12&x=1239&y=1518
for an example.) This causes Inkscape to use enormous amounts of
memory when rendering these tiles -- last night, I had a render fail
because the Inkscape processes rendering z12 and z13 managed to fill
all 6 GB of RAM+swap on my system.

Is this a big enough problem to worry about, when Maplint is doing
what it's supposed to do?
