Actually, I just did that. And it seems like this error is shown when either the first node of the way is not the last node of the privious way or the last node is not the first node of the next way. I'll include that on the wiki. Now, looking at my data I don't see why this error comes up. The node in question only belongs to the two coastline ways and it is the first and last node respectively. Next, I have uploaded my data to give everybody the chance to look at it and the error is gone :-/ Now I am completely mystified. Uploading of the 'buggy' data has fixed it. Could it be that backreferenceDataSet.getParents() returns deleted ways?
