[mkgmap-dev] Style-File not parsed from top to bottom - BUG:

The rules are not really read from top to bottom on every element.  It is
more like they are applied all at once and the resuling type definition 
that comes first in the rule file(s) is chosen.
As a result all actions that are on rules that match are always run
and so it is as if all actions occur at the top of the file.

I don't see this behaviour changing for rules without
a type (like your "oneway=yes { set oneway=no }" below).
But for rules with a type, I agree it is a bug if the action is
run on something other than the first matched rule.

I'll think about this.

Thanks,
