Comment(by mmetz):

 Replying to [ticket:2550 dido]:
 > Polygons disappear after v.generalize simplification.
 >
 > A large rectangular polygon dataset is used with ~14 000 features.
 > Polygons are first processed with rmarea to remove all polygons of size
 900 m2. Then a simplification is executed with v.generalize using a factor
 of 10, all other parameters defaulted.
 >
 > After simplification several large polygons are missing from the set
 rendering it useless.

 I can confirm the problem. This is a bug in the vector libraries regarding
 topology updating and has been fixed in GRASS 7. Please wait for GRASS
 7.0.0RC2 or use a daily build.
