I could reproduce this: all boundaries of areas that overlap with
points are not written to the output when using v.select -r. This
caused unclosed boundaries of neighboring unselected areas. Fixed in
trunk r68110 and relbr70 r68111. You will need to wait for GRASS 7.0.4
or compile GRASS 7 yourself (easy on Debian).
