Ya, I've seen postings on the OSM dev list about scripts, but I've not tried them. Generally I use the tool Artem wrote called 'pgsql2sqlite' (http://trac.mapnik.org/browser/trunk/utils/pgsql2sqlite) > Seems I need multiple tools, 20Mb download (FW Tools), etc. Migrating data into sqlite with GDAL/OGR should work well.
