[mkgmap-dev] mkgmap does not compile with Java 8

Hi

Thanks, I committed a fix so that it now compiles with Java 8.

A new method was added to Map interface in Java 8 which conflicts with a method we were using. I renamed it.

Note that there are alight differences in the results if you run with
Java 8, they are probably harmless ordering related differences but
best to be aware.
