[mkgmap-dev] Splitter issue

   Hello,

I was splitting the file from 
http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/north-america/us-west.osm.pbf and got 
the following error a couple times:

Exception in thread "worker-0" 
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -2
     at java.lang.String.getChars(String.java:860)

If I first convert pbf to osm using osmosis then split everything goes fine.

Where does it come from?

   Thanks,

N.
