Good catch! The trunk uses the mkgmap:street and if not available some 
other names. The branch only uses mkgmap:street. I think this is the 
"cleaner" solution with no side effects.

I have added a rule to the compat_lines file.

Mmmh, "name=* { name '${name}' }" is the first rule in the compat_points 
file. But I will check place pois again.

The carpool handling is independent in the branch. But only if you don't 
use the compat_* includes.
