Each polygon of a multi-polygon is imported separately, later on polygons
are converted to GRASS areas.

Regarding the error message, GRASS recognizes the OGR geometry types point,
linestring, polygon, geometry collection, multi-point, multi-linestring,
multi-polygon. Other OGR geometry types like curves and surfaces are not
supported.
