code best: How difficult would it be to change v.buffer to be able to do
this ?

Buffers around points are trivial, and square buffers around points would
be even more trivial. This could be triggered by the already existing -s
flag (square caps at end of lines, outside corners straight).

Please create a ticket for square buffers around points such that this
request does not get forgotten.
