[GRASSLIST:2406] v.proj problems

Hi all, I am trying to convert some data from a lat-long projection to a utm
projection.  I am using v.proj, but the projected vectors come out in the wrong
location (northern hemisphere, when they should be southern).  The area I am
using is in Chile, so it is in the southern hemisphere, I was thinking this
might be the problem?  The v.info results are listed here.

 Projection: UTM (zone 19)
 |N:    8062436    S:    3775859
 |E:     774210    W:    -213663

 Projection: Latitude-Longitude (zone 0)
 |N:        -18    S:        -56
 |E:        -66    W:        -76

Both projections use the wgs84 datum.

Any ideas out there?
