Oh sorry about that, brainfart:) I should have given you a link to a
file that was actually useful to you!

Here's one made with:

    wget "http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=-22.093,64.025,-21.594,64.203"
-O reykjavik.osm
    java -jar ~/src/mkgmap/dist/mkgmap.jar --road-name-pois
--description="OSM Reykjavik"  --latin1 --gmapsupp --route --net
reykjavik.osm

with revision 975 of mkgmap (trunk):

I just tried loading that map and I can't find anywhere in the Find
menu where I can search for streetnames (as before).
