Well however even without typo I'm still missing them!!!!!

Using:
/landuse ~ 'residential\|residental' [0x03 resolution 21]
place ~ 'town\|suburb\|village\|hamlet' [0x03 resolution 21]/

There is absolutely no 0x03 in my map....
If I use instead

/landuse=residential | landuse=residental [0x03 resolution 21]
place=suburb | place=village | place=town [0x03 resolution 21]/

it renders fine.
Something fundamentally fucks up in with your patch or there is again 
some typo that I made?
