Both of these workarounds will get me a personally useful file, but neither is 
appropriate for situations where I'm setting up rendering styles for clients or 
other people and need to help them help themselves.

Where would I put in a formal request that those lines be deleted from the 
osm2pgsql code, or submit a patch? The instructions here suggest that Trac is 
the right place, but I seem to need a Trac login to file a report:

Jon Burgess is helping me off-list with some interesting intermediate files 
from the processor that he linked to in a previous mail. I'm interested in 
seeing those made available at the "official" URL, 
http://hypercube.telascience.org/~kleptog/.
