It depends on what you expected to obtain.
Clearly v.dissolve can not produce attribute table as it produces vectors
with new "cats" and "old" atts in the resultant (dissolved) vector can't be
merged together.

Dissolved vectors need revisited attribute tables (eg. aggregate atts).

I used Grass 6.2.2 and the latest 6.3.cvs. Same problem with both!
