Normally there are no problem, but ....
..... in one I had a core dump (Great Britain).
I've analyzed results and I discovered :
- core dump was verified in this case

                            |end poly
                            v
              ____ ____
     |________|
        ^
        |start poly

- other cases are similar situations or 90 degree wise.

The same result I had with or without smoothing !

Just want to add that we've had many core dumps of r.poly using a SOLARIS
2.x/gcc compiled version of GRASS4.1 with all updates. Works fine on
SMALL coverages, but if I attempt to do vectorize anything extensive, I get
dumped out.

Also, on the problems that have been mentioned about v.trim: I've given up
considering it to be a viable tool, because of it has consistantly given
bizarre results (missing islands, line features looping back and connecting
to the beginning node over new paths , etc.). This has occured over various
versions of GRASS.
