:) thanks for your advice.

I had a look at the style files. There are "place=" entries in
"polygons" style file:

place=village [0x03 resolution 19]
place=island & name=* [0x53 resolution 19]
place=islet & name=* [0x53 resolution 20]

and indeed, place=village is not followed with "& name" like the
others. Is this normal? Furthermore, there could be other place= where
name is unset and is not a village, such as hamlets. Thus as you write
it, it would be better to fix this upstream. I'll do a formal post
regarding this issue soon.
