[GRASSLIST:3216] building topology on vector file?

With a recent cvs build, I am getting strange warnings when displaying 
some vector layers:

GRASS 5.7.-cvs:~ > d.vect streams type=line
WARNING: Cannot open category index file for vector 'streams at PERMANENT'.

More importantly, when I try and run some functions on these layers, I 
get the following error:

GRASS 5.7.-cvs:~ > d.what.vect
WARNING: Cannot open category index file for vector 'streams at PERMANENT'.
ERROR: streams at PERMANENT: You must build topology on vector file

I'm not sure  what it is referring to in terms of building a topology, 
but I have never had this error with previous builds of 5.7.

Any hints most welcome,
Chris
