[mkgmap-dev] order of lines / roads

but devices do it opposite to Basecamp/Mapsource 6.14 or newer - or did 
you (Minko) circumvent this?
Because of that, I think it doesn't matter at all, you should better use 
transparency and create the layout in such a way, that it works no 
matter the order...

I'm afraid if you change a little of code I have to redesign my maps totally.  I also added some overlay types to mask some nasty artefacts (so called spaghetti effect on older units, see http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=10032) and changing the draw order of lines might also have a negative impact.
