Johannes,

your patch patches revision 1580. The current revision of mkgmap is 
1773. The patched files contain lots of changes between 1580 and 1773. I 
wonder how it is possible to use your patch with the latest revision 
1773 without manual changes?

I assume either you don't use the latest mkgmap release or you haven't 
posted your latest patch.
