I've made the appropriate updates to the Mapnik osm2pgsql import code so that it will only add the automatic 'P' symbol to a parking area if there is no access= tag or if there is access=public. Any other access=<something> tag will prevent a P being added. It will take a week or two before the effect of this change will appear on the rendered maps. In addition I've added the access= key to the list of columns exported to the PostgreSQL database so we can add further map styles to differentiate other objects with access=<something> on the map.
