My reading of the v.report manual page suggests the output of the command
matches the option and units specified for the map being reported. That does
not seem to be the case in this situation:
Now, I can copy that output to a text file and reformat it so data and
headings match in columns, but is this the expected output when the command
specifies area in kilometers?

loading the text snippet above into a spreadsheet, columns matches here.
looking at the values in the columns:
AreaSqKm
51,14
vs
area (by v.report)
51,12685082
area in square kilometers looks ok without knowing anything about the vector
data.

Helmut,
I'm sure it does the same here, but that was not my question. I didn't ask
it properly so I'll try again.
The v.report manual page explains that specifying an option of area,
length, or coordinates is required. The implication is that the user selects
one option which is output in the desired units. The results I obtained
include everything, despite my asking for only one. If that's the default
behavior why require declaration of _an_ option?
As a side issue, if everything is going to be dumped to the console why
not eliminate the option option and format output as a two row table rather
than requiring the output to be transferred to a spreadsheet?

Not sure I understand it right, are you refering to
[....]Shape_Length|Shape_Area|area
?
only the area columns comes from v.report
the other columns are already in the original data.
