I think that's really a question for the mapnik list, but the simple
answer is that we don't do anything clever to handle it.
The difference in scales between zoom levels is probably large enough
that it isn't really an issue though if you set a reasonably wide range
of scales for a feature rather than trying to pin down an exact scale.
You will probably notice that osm.xml is all over the shop when it
comes to specifying scale values - there is no real fixed set of values
that are used throughout to target particular zoom levels.
