I've fixed this; R_polygon_{abs,rel} will get PostScript to do the
filling. With d.vect, you need to use render={r,d,c} to prevent it
from using G_plot_polygon().

Also, polylines are now rendered as single paths rather than
individual line segments (this matters if you have thick lines, as you
want joins at the vertices).
