That is coming from GRASS 5 and used as a safety check that the
spatial index has the same dimensions like the coordinates. It can
probably be removed.

Needed by diglib, because diglib functions get only Map->plus, not Map itself.

Needed for reading and writing coordinates and if no topology is
available or requested (e.g. v.info, v.surf.*).
