Well it didn't seem to work for me (at least using the patch with the 
most up to date mkgmap trunk version last Thursday)

That's a bug - correct. But actually it's not sometimes, but all the 
time - I was first to report this over 3 years ago on the us garmin 
forum (mapsource 6.14) and actually one dev sometimes even promised to 
fix it but never got to do it. All asymetric lines are rendered the 
opposite side on Computer vs GPS unit (I think mapsource 6.13 is same 
side as GPS however). Garmin doesn't care as they never used asymetric 
lines (I was the first one to do so using transparency) - the only had 
asymetric lines in so far as older GPS units/mapsource 6.13 didn't 
render 2,4,6,8,... pixel lines actually in the middle (only 1,3,5 where 
actually centered) - and now that they started using asymetric lines - 
they don't have them dependent on direction...
