Thanks Mike and Maning,
The XAPI call worked beautifully. I tried it before but the HTTP connection
just timed out so I tried it again tonight and it worked. :-)
So the following XAPI call should now return the complete 80 place=state
nodes for the provinces.

"state" is the Map Features tag value for states, provinces and roughly
synonomous high-level national subdivisions.

place=village
name=X

Ok. I tried a crack at checking/fixing the Oriental Mindoro place node and
found out that this is much harder than I thought.
First, I tried confirming whether there's a place node for Oriental Mindoro.
Doing this with Potlatch is impossible so I used Merkaartor and serially
