Helmut,

   You've answered the question I was about to ask. The command I entered did
not provide a PROJ_INFO file in lat_lon/PERMANENT so v.proj had no basis for
reprojecting the points.

   As usual, your advice is golden and I always learn something new from
following it.

Much appreciated,

Rich
