Okay, so, for OSM terminology, a roundabout means 1) traffic goes in

need not stop (no stop signs).

I hope not...OSM currently has no way of reflecting priority at junctions. Introducing this distinction just for "circular junctions" is a bit pointless.

However if the consensus is to distinguish between the priority rules at "circular junctions", I hope it will be explicitly tagged (e.g. junction=traffic_circle) so mkgmap will still be able to recognise a "circular junction" and call it a roundabout even if it doesn't comply with the OSM semantics for one.
