The compile process is just ready and there were no 'zero length arc'
messages for the area I compiled. But the other message I mentioned
above remains and now I can give you the full text of it:

> SCHWERWIEGEND (RouteArc): Way Bastia-Savona (id 8068024) contains an arc whose length is too big to be encoded so the road will not be routable

I assume that especially ferry routes tend to be very long and mappers
should not be forced to split them up.

BTW, 'road' might be the wrong word here since there are no roads on
sea. How about 'way'?

Cheers
