v.proj from utm to state plane

Hi,

I am trying to convert vector areas from utm to state plane using v.proj.
When the conversion is done, most of the areas don't transfer. If I look
at the dig_att file, it appears to be trashed. Instead of

   A easting northing cat,

I get

   binary garbage easting northing cat.

Some areas have only one coordinate. Others are dropped completely. Both
locations have valid PROJ_INFO files. I found a reference to improperly
formatted coordinates in v.proj under BUG_FIXES but it is not in updates
1-3. I also found a footnote in the programmer guide that state plane is
not fully supported. Which of these, if any, is my problem?
