You're very brave to think of translating kml into osm - in theory it shouldn't be a problem as both are txt files ; it may be that ignoring authorship/timestamps etc can affect the creation of an img file ; perhaps start with one node ; the bounds tag are essential for defining the area limits so you would have to work out the max and min lats / longs from your kml data. Good luck!
