Can you give the Subversion URL for that branch? It was not obvious to 
me when I tried to find it last night.

Would it be possible to add some user-configureable pre-processing in 
splitter for omitting certain objects or moving nodes around, like my 
Perl script (posted earlier in this thread) does? Well, I guess it is 
always possible by patching the source, but I would prefer something 
plugin- or filter-like that allows me to run unmodified binaries.  

Something like a dynamic preprocessing library for splitter? It could 
also take care of rewrites, such as a more sophisticated form of 
mkgmap's --name-tag-list.
