I recall reading in the cgpsmappers manual that routable preview maps 
are required for "proper" inter map routing in mapsource. Nether 
cgpsmapper nor mkgmap generate routable preview maps (it should be 
possible to try this manually?), but a Garmin compiled map may be 
different. As the preview map is not uploaded to the GPSr, the handling 
of inter-map routing must be different between the GPSr and mapsource.
