Well it didn't really. I just found out that Mapsource 6.15.x is a bit 
more tolerant to mkgmap maps on borders. However sometimes it also 
blocks up completly, If I find some time I'll try to analyse why in 
special cases it does route over several borders. Mapsource 6.13.x never 
routes above more than 1 border however.... And soon Mapsource 6.16 will 
be published which is supposed to haver rather big changes regarding 
routing and regarding the dreaded x/y fixed correction (though not 
really fixed but centered to the middle of the map, or alternative 
centered depending on registry entry).
