Short answer is that there's no good automatic way, it's a big and tedious task. But I like the French CLC approach: importing verbatim everything that doesn't come, say, 200m of an existing OSM node should save 90% of the manual work. Note that there may be more things that need to be adapted to OSM standards by a human mapper before the import, beside the conflicts with existing data.
