[GRASSLIST:8486] setting region resolution

[Jason Horn]

Does anyone know why, when you set the resolution of a region, you  
end up getting a resolution slightly different than what you  
expected?  For example, in a lambert projection, if I set the  
resolution as follows:

g.region nsres=1000 ewres=1000

and then I query the region settings...

g.region -p

I get this

.
.
.
nsres:      999.51820128
ewres:      1000.27989946
.
.
.

Thanks,

- Jason
