v.support

[Krzysztof KrisKoperski]

Problem 1:

v.support seems not to work well with assignment of category 
values to areas with some shapes like the one below:


*****************
*                *
*                 *
*--------         *
*                *
*****************

the line inside areas like ----------- seems to cause the problem
is there any program deleting such lines?

Problem 2

is there any program for merging adjacent areas with the same 
attributes values like two below:

***************
*              *
*   att=12     *
*             *
**************
*            *
*   att=12  *
*          *
***********
