The node http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/27123754 is properly 
connected to the CityLink motorway, but there is no ref specified on the 
two CityLink motorway sections. Add the ref on the CityLink ways to make 
mkgmap happy.

Sometimes, you have a branching motorway exit ramp. The exit:road_ref 
would be useful for those cases.
