Well I just discovered that my decreasing of douglas peucker algorithm 
from 2.6 to 1.3 might have been responsible.

I just kicked that out (using only your fill-line patch) and fewer holes 
than before. I will try again the round coordinates patch without my 
changes to douglas peucker algorithm.
Attached the douglas peucker filter patch that I had been using, maybe 
they were responsible for the problems?
Actually using Filter_Distance = 5.4: could be working even better - the 
straighter the line - the less holes (I just don't know whether 5.4 
wouldn't be so much, that when using your GPS far zoomed out you have 
the problem of driving besides the street instead of on the street (like 
when using the GPS inbuilt basemap).

The other reason could be that the "double line" is defined via typfile 
to be out of center
