none the less, it doesn't hurt to look, depending on how it is written
it might be understandable / tweakable.

note the v.strahler help page makes special mention that if you used
r.watershed you should check the topology. Maybe it makes a bitter deal
out of that than is really the case?

do you see a "ladder effect" in the r.to.vect river network?
(like a braided river with all joins at right angles)
maybe that is the problematic topology the module is concerned about?
