[mkgmap-dev] [locator] Separate boundary files

> Just run a small test, if I dont specify boundsdirectory, mkgmap complains about no boundary directory found.

The first results look very good. Seems that with this method a lot of issues are solved, like places are now in the correct Province and Country, and streets that once had no assigned place name can now be located. Thanks Wanmil, you have done an excellent job!

Your results sounds fine!
What do you say about performance? I was a bit disappointed about memory 
consumption and processing time. This has to be investigated and improved.

I will have a look on your boundsdirectory error message. I would not 
expect it if you put the files in a subdirectory named bounds. But I 
didn't test it and the code is still in a prototype stage. So lot's of 
things to do :-)
