 For easier inspection:

 As mentioned, SQLite doesn't support more than 2000 columns out of the
 box, for hints see

 http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_GIS_Performance#Maximum_Number_of_Attribute_Columns

 While the buffer in points.c could probably be enlarged, the latter is
 a problem not related to GRASS GIS.
