Subject: v.out.ogr fails

Platform: Mac OSX
grass obtained from: CVS
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: 6.1.cvs checked out 18032006

v.out.ogr fails with the following error. It seems to get aprox 25% into the job before failing. 

GRASS 6.1.cvs (minnesota_utm):~ > v.out.ogr input=forties type=area dsn="PG:host=localhost 
dbname=timber_forties user=kwythers" olayer=forties format=PostgreSQL
Exporting 1314202 areas (may take some time) ...

ERROR: Cannot select attributes for cat = 363284

However, running v.out.ogr on the spearfish dataset ran to compleation, 

GRASS 6.1.cvs (spearfish60):~ > v.out.ogr input=soils type=area dsn="PG:host=localhost 
dbname=spearfish user=kwythers" olayer=soils format=PostgreSQL
Exporting 737 areas (may take some time) ...
 100%
737 features written
WARNING: 1 features without attributes written

The vector that does not works fine in GRASS, but is MUCH larger than the spearfish soils vector. 
Could that be the problem?
