didnt mats report a possible instance of this some time ago

yes in message 4660 about busingen
but the occurrence was fortuitous rather than deliberate
so not a really suitable example

& a haunting but probably equally inappropriate counterexample from
berlin occurs in message 3434

also a quote in 3371 promising the desired examples

That was in the discussion about the strange border at Heringsbosch
on the denl border, Michael. I think it was Peter H. (remember that
it was HIS place (Herings Wood)!) that posted a map on which the
border switched sides constantly over a considerable stretch. I then
found on a map I have that the border is in the middle of the road,
and that the markers are pairs on each side of the road. Eef later on
confirmed this.

As for me: I have just come back from my holidays. Hence the silence
on my part. I'm now working my way through the odd two hundred
messages... so bear with me...
