I didn't observe any of these errors with r1011 and
http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe/finland.osm.bz2
from today.  Something must have been wrong with the old data set.

By the way, calculating a bicycle route from Helsinki to Oulu, Tornio,
or even just Kuopio (350 km, across a tile boundary) spends several
minutes at 100% and then gives up saying something like "out of memory".
Calculating a car route is just fine.

Please find attached a simple POI patch for the default style that I would
like to be committed.

Best regards,
