[GRASS5] [bug #3181] (grass) Sorry, <catcol> is not a valid parameter

this bug's URL: http://intevation.de/rt/webrt?serial_num=3181
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

$ v.in.ascii catcol=0 out=s11 columns='x double,y double,contno integer'
  Sorry, <catcol> is not a valid parameter
OK, then remove it from v.in.ascii.html.

P.S.,
v.net.path -s makes many segments but only writes one database line. Bad?

I notice one must use format=standard if one want v.out.ascii to work.
GRASS 6.0.0beta2 (2005)

$ v.to.db help
  -s print only sql statements
Say "only print sql statements" perhaps.

On v.db.connect.html, exammples like
        v.db.connect map=vectormap table=table field=1 key=cat driver=dbf
        database='$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/dbf'
should mention that all these are the default values...

PS. Seg fault:
$ v.to.db map=m5 option=length type=line col=linelength units=me
DBMI-DBF driver error:
Column 'cat' not found
Error in db_open_select_cursor()

Updating database ... 12% *** [KK] Segmentation fault

Let's try your examples on db.execute.html:

$ echo 'create table soils ("cat" int, "soiltype" text)' | db.execute
dbmi: Protocol error (invalid table/column name or unsupported column
type)
ERROR: Error while executing: "create table soils ("cat" int,
"soiltype"
       text)
       "

Oh how dumb, so this works
echo 'create table soils (cat int, soiltype int);' | db.execute
So remove the quote marks! Check the whole page.
