The routine that 'hangs' is only called with --route, so you need that.

I don't know what --link-pois-to-ways is doing to create all those same 
name roads, but there are only a handful of roads that have the name 
normally. There are thousands of nodes with that name and I am assuming 
that the option causes them to be added to the way somehow. I am not 
sure how though and it might well be unintentional.
