Have you tried if there is a difference whether the gmapsupp got created
by mkgmap, sendmap or Basecamp/Mapsource??
Maybe mkgmap makes some mistakes when creating the gmapsupp, and on big
files it doesn't work. Note however that in any case a map like whole UK
will take quite some time to import to Basecamp (and lots of RAM).
