s.surf.tps in lat/long coordinates

In info.grass.user you write:

s.surf.tps doesn't work with lat/lon yet, so your solution was
the right one.

In general s.surf.tps gives an error "Points are too concentrated"
when the smallest segment has only one row or column and cannot be divided
anymore while having more points that segmax. That is why 
dmin=min(ns_res,ew_res) by default -- so that there are never more than
4 points per cell.
