The only thing I did with Osmosis was troubleshooting. I filtered all 
place=* nodes with Osmosis so that I was able to load the relevant part 
of finland.osm.pbf to JOSM to see what is going on.

The map is generated straight from finland.osm.pbf with splitter and 
mkgmap using the default style. The only 'hack' in my osm2img.sh is the 
assignment of tile borders in a way that avoids 'drying' the Baltic sea.  
(For the tile near the twin city Haparanda/Torneå/Tornio on the 
Swedish-Finnish border, I am passing 
--generate-sea=multipolygon,extend-sea-sectors.  Other tiles use plain 
--generate-sea=multipolygon.)

Thanks! I guess I should have been more explicit.
