I think Klaus deals with the same problems that my cycle map users have pointed 
me when using the latest releases of Basecamp. 
See http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=13384&p=2 (in Dutch but you 
can use google translate)

Not only my maps are affected but in fact all OSM/mkgmap and some other maps 
compiled with cgpsmapper (like the Onroute Motor and cycling maps).  We have 
posted this problem on the Garmin forum, see 
http://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?t=21681&page=5

I'm trying to figure out what Basecamp has changed and noticed that the road 
selection slider has become more powerfull. On my bikemap I've made cycleways 
the major highway by giving them the highest road_class (4) and a high 
road_speed (3, not 7 because the navigation warnings came way too early 
otherwise). When pushing the road selection slider towards the highways to the 
right, routing is forced now on cycleways which sometimes works much better 
than in Mapsource. A negative aspect is that the access=no bicycle=no foot=no 
etc parameters are ignored in the latest basecamp releases (3.2.1/3.2.2) so I'm 
working on some fixes in the style sheerts. One work arounnd is moving all the 
bicycle=no tagged roads to non routable lines, but this doesnt work for 
multi-purpose maps. Another negative aspect is that some users found out that 
avoidance of carpool lanes breaks the routing (like Klaus expererienced too). I 
have tried to avoid steps by giving them a mkgmap:unpaved=1 tag but Ba
 secamp seems to ignore this too... I'll have to do more testing on this and 
I'm looking forward to new ideas.
