I have seen it when the way closest to the destination point in the mkgmap-generated map is part of a "routing island". I guess that we should consider translating highway=pedestrian as ways (not areas) in the default style, to fix this problem. I fixed it by adding a way through the pedestrian area, but it is only a matter of time before someone "rights this wrong" by deleting the routing way again. In "demo mode", my Garmin Edge 705 even jumped my current location 1 or 2 km to south so that the route would start closer to a way on the basemap. >Is there a bug report database for mkgmap where we can collect >information about this problem? There is http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap/known_issues. This problem does not seem to be mentioned there. Are there "routing islands" on commercial maps? Are there tools for checking that in Garmin maps?
